Raquel Nelson on the Today Show
Last week I talked about the PBS video from Blueprint America following the case of Raquel Nelson in Atlanta - the woman who was convicted Nelson was convicted of vehicular homicide after her son was struck by a driver while they were crossing a busy road. 
She was on the Today Show, talking about the jury that convicted her:
It's three years away from the two that I have left.
I don't think that they could relate to what I was going through ... All of the jurors stated they've never ridden public transportation and they've never really been in my shoes, so I think there's maybe not a jury of peers.
There's a petition at Change.org asking for the judge to exercise leniency in the case, and for the Cobb County Transportation Department to install a crosswalk at the spot where Raquel's A.J. was killed. As of this writing, there's almost 150,000 signatures.
