The jurors from Michael Jackson's trial criticized Ms Cook and Mr Hultman for declaring on public television they think the pop star is guilty and that they acquitted him pressured by the other jurors.

Susan Rentschler, on of the jurors from molestation trial declared for the New York Daily News, "I don't know about Ray, but I think Elly wants attention and she's trying to sell a book.

It (the not guilty verdict) was not a done deal, by any means. Ray actually came over to the 'not guilty' side pretty early on. He realized that he could not convict Michael Jackson on his personal feelings alone."

Fellow juror Michael Stevens, 21, adds, "They've become traitors."

"I'm stunned. It's ridiculous. If you think anyone could tell Elly what to do, then you don't know Elly", a 50-year-old female juror, was quoted by the New York Post, as saying

Ms Cook and Mr Hultman told US network MSNBC that they believed Jackson's accuser Gavin Arvizo had been sexually assaulted.

The two jurors are now planning to write a book about the trial and their deliberations. Eleanor Cook, 79, will call her book "Guilty As Sin, Free As A Bird", according to some reports. Ray Hultman, 62, who said that he believed Jackson had probably molested boys, will call his book "The Deliberator".
