So - I'm taking a step back and look at the why - why make this statement.

First - content: there's not much there at all. He is just saying that he couldn't look at her and found her crazy. That is not surprising or adding relevant new information.

Second - why. If there is no gag order on the jury - and I don't believe there is - he can talk about his experience. How exhausting it was. How they deliberated. How they came to their verdict. That would have been interesting and relevant information.

My impression - he is truthful and was on the jury. If that was a person who wasn't, he would have made it all about himself, and added lots of drama, which he didn't. He seems to be a down-to-earth kind of guy who didn't believe her BS and found her repulsive.

He probably followed the rules as best as he could and didn't look intentionally at news or social media. He might have inadvertedly seen something which he doesn't want to disclose.

But why put this out at all? I don't know, maybe looking for his one minute of fame. He is not seeking more than that.
