Description

Hunters major contention on appeal is that the jury was exposed to improper communications from third persons, that the trial court did not take proper steps to determine whether the communications resulted in prejudice to the defendant, and that we must assume that the remarks were prejudicial. The background of this argument is as follows: After the jury had deliberated for about an hour and one-half, the court received two notes from jurors. The notes told the court that when the jurors passed some black men just outside the courtroom and one sitting in the courtroom near the jury box, these men referred to the jury as being "prejudiced." The court showed the notes to counsel, called the jurors back into the courtroom, told them that they would be protected from harassment and instructed them to resume their deliberations. A short time later the jury found the defendant guilty.
