Letters written by jurors at last month's trial of Anthony Love indicate only one juror believed he was not guilty of the murder of his girlfriend's 3-year-old son, Kei'Mere "Moochie" Marshall.
As first reported by News10NBC, one of the jurors told prosecutors they were concerned that Love would go free and said the 11 jurors compromised on a manslaughter conviction so the family wouldn't have to endure a retrial.
Love faces up to 25 years in prison when he is sentenced on March 3. The boy's mother is awaiting her own trial on a manslaughter charge.
