Years ago I was a copyeditor. I learned that things are "hung" and people are "hanged." Of course, juries are people, too, but when a jury deadlocks, "it" is "hung" (a "hung jury"), because a jury is grammatically an it.

So, it seems to me that grammatically a single juror who causes a jury to deadlock ought to be an it, too, and thus ought to be referred to as a "hung juror." Regrettably, though, this phrase has an unfortunate alternative meaning, which is particularly objectionable to me, since I am female and the juror in question in this blog.

Then, too, the name of my courtroom drama/legal mystery is THE JUROR HANGS (which is what literally happens to one poor juror in the novel).

At the risk of losing the connotation I desire for the name of this blog (namely, that I am often the lone holdout against popular opinion), I am changing the name  to THE HANGED JUROR.
