The foreperson of the jury that hung on murder charges against a former Clear Creek County deputy says a holdout on the jury was biased and shouldn't have been there
The foreperson said it was clear within 30 minutes of deliberations that 10 of the 12 jurors believed Andrew Buen was guilty of second-degree murder.GEORGETOWN, Colo — The foreperson on a jury that couldn’t reach a verdict on key counts in the trial of Andrew Buen said a holdout juror appeared biased and shouldn’t have been on the jury.
"Looking at what the law says, and looking at the evidence in front of us, it was clear as day to 10 of us that this is a guilty man," she said. “It was clear that Christian was in crisis,” Englekirk said. “I don't care whether that was drugs, I don't care if it was alcohol. I don't care if it was a mental health crisis. He was not well. And it was evident from the second that the police got on scene that he was not well. It was evident from the 911 call that he was not well. And I think that police, when someone is in crisis like that, we need to expect them to treat people better.
