Martin's Mom Devastated That Juror 'Felt He Was Guilty' Trayvon Martin's mother, Sybrina Fulton, said it was "devastating" to hear a juror tell ABC News in an exclusive interview that the jury in the George Zimmerman case thought the former neighborhood watchman was guilty and "got away with murder." "It is devastating for my family to hear the comments from juror B29, comments which we already knew in our hearts to be true," Fulton said in a statement released Thursday through The Trayvon Martin Foundation. " That George Zimmerman literally got away with murder. This new information challenges our nation once again to do everything we can to make sure that this never happens to another child. "That's why Tracy [Martin] and I have launched The Trayvon Martin Foundation to try and take something very painful and negative and turn it into something positive as a legacy to our son," Fulton added. EXCLUSIVE: Zimmerman Juror Says He 'Got Away With Murder Fulton's comments came hours after juror B29 emerged from the shadows and told "Good Morning America" anchor Robin Roberts Thursday she believes she owes Martin's parents an apology because she feels "like I let them down." And as I carry him on my back, I'm hurting as much [as] Trayvon Martin's mother because there's no way that any mother should feel that pain," said B29, who only wanted to be identified as Maddy. Zimmerman was acquitted earlier this month of second-degree murder and manslaughter charges in the 2012 slaying of the unarmed teen.

Maddy said she favored convicting Zimmerman of second-degree murder when deliberations began. Her feelings were eventually swayed by the second day of deliberations after she realized there wasn't enough proof to convict Zimmerman of murder or manslaughter under Florida law.

Zimmerman concedes he shot and killed Martin in Sanford Feb. 26, 2012, but maintains he fired in self-defense. Maddy, who only recently moved to Florida from Chicago, said she has had trouble adjusting to life after the verdict, and has wrestled with whether she made the right decision.
