The Florida murder trial of a Black man that ended in a mistrial after three jurors allegedly wouldn't convict him of the top charge based on his race is slated to start anew later this month.

A panel of 12 jurors agreed that Dayonte Resiles, 27, stabbed to death Jill Halliburton Su, 59, during a home invasion robbery in 2014 – but they couldn't agree on the charge, the jury forewoman told WSVN 7News.

"[The three jurors] said, 'I don't want to send a young Black male to jail for the rest of their life or have him get the death sentence,'" the forewoman told the news station of the trial that ended in a hung jury on Dec. 8.
