The verdict isn't even in but the grandaughter of the 79 year old juror in the Michael Jackson case says the grandmother said she planned to write a book on the experience and she is working to make sure her grandmother follows through.

The granddaughter has already lined up a co-author, who has confirmed the plan, but says they will wait 90 days as required by law to finalize it.

[granddaughter] Montgomery, a teacher in Fair Oaks, said her grandmother expressed an interest in writing a book soon after she was picked as a juror in February - "just at the beginning of the trial when she talked about being on 'Oprah' and '60 Minutes,'" Montgomery said.

...she has enlisted Ernie Carwile, a Denver author, to co-write the possible book. "It might be kind of nebulous but (Montgomery) assured me it would take place," Carwile said Friday. "We have nothing in writing or anything, and can't until 90 days."

    Yeah, saw that interiew early today. She also said her grandmother thinks he's guilty and will probably vote to convict! Mistrial? I kinda hope so. I'd love to see this trial done over again! Maybe then Jackson's attorney can come up ith a decent defense!! Of course, Michal Jackson will probably have 50 more hospital trips squeezed in there!!

    That juror should be interviewed and, if necessary, replaced.
