why george zimmerman could be back in the courtroom defending himself again in trayvon martin's death. >> good morning. welcome to "early start." i'm don lemon. >> i'm pamela brown. it's 5:00 a.m. in the east. >> good to be with you. >> you, too, don. >> we are going to move on. let's start with the latest on george zimmerman case. more than two days after a jury acquitted him in the killing of unarmed trayvon martin. we have not heard from the former neighborhood watch volunteer. there's no word, yet, if martin's family plans to sue for wrongful death. attorney general, eric holder says they are looking into the case. he called martin's death tragic and unnecessary. there were more protests monday in atlanta and houston with demonstrators demanding justice for the 17-year-old. in oakland, arrests, assault and

vandalism. we now know more about what happened inside the jury room as the six women debated it. juror b-37 spoke to anderson cooper on "360" about what she thought about the testimony and the people involved. >> what did you think of george zimmerman? >> i think george zimmerman is a man whose heart is in the right place that got displaced by the vandalism in the neighborhoods and wanting to catch these people so badly that he went above and beyond what he really should have done. >> do you think he's guilty of something? >> i think he's guilty of not using good judgment. when he was in the car and called 911, he shouldn't have

gotten out of that car. the 911 operator, also, when he was talking to him egged him on. i don't know if it's their policy to tell them not to get out of the car, to stay in the car, but i think he should have said stay in your car, not can you see where he's gone. >> do you feel george zimmerman should have been carrying a gun? >> i think he has every right to carry a gun. i think it's everybody's right to carry a gun. >> do you think, based on the testimony you have heard, trayvon martin was the aggressor? >> i think the world changed. i think -- i think george got in a little too deep, which he shouldn't have been there, but trayvon decided he wasn't going to let him scare him and get the one over, up on him or something. i think trayvon got mad and attacked him. >> do you feel like you knew for

sure what happened in the altercation and did the other jurors feel they knew what happened? >> nobody knew exactly what happened. >> what did you think of the testimony of trayvon martin's mother and father? do you find them credible? >> i think they said anything a mother and father would say, just like george zimmerman's mom and father. i think, they're your kids. you want to believe that they are innocent and that was their voice. hearing that voice would make it credible that they were the victim, not the aggressor. >> in a way, both sets of parents kind of canceled each other out in your mind? >> they did. definitely. if i was a mother, i would want to believe so hard it was not my son that did that or was responsible for any of that that i would convince myself probably that it was his voice. >> so you don't believe race play add role in this case?

>> i don't think it did. if there was another person, spanish, white, asian, if they came in the same situation they were trayvon was, i think george would have reacted the exact same way. >> was that a common belief on the jury that race did not play a role in this? >> i think all of us thought race did not play a role. >> it didn't come up, the question of did george zimmerman profile trayvon martin because he was african-american? >> no, he profiled him because he was neighborhood watch and profiled anyone coming in acting strange. i think circumstances happened that he saw trayvon at the exact time he thought he was suspicious. >> people remarked he gets his gun back. some people said the idea he can have a gun worries them. does that worry you? >> it doesn't worry me. i think he would be more

responsible than anyone else on this planet right now. >> she's dropping plans to write a book about the case. it's better to return to the life she lived before she was called to sit on the jury. >> one of the key witnesses for the prosecution was rachel je jeantel. she tells cnns piers morgan the verdict made her disappointed and race did play a role. >> do you think that was racially motivated or more a case of somebody he thought was a young thug, black or white. >> it was racial, let's be honest. racial. if trayvon was white, he had a hoody on, would it happen? >> she says zimmerman should have testified calling him weak for not doing so. >> this development from the legal side of the case. mark o'mara tells reuters the

prosecutors should be sanctioned for with holding evidence calling them a disgrace saying they did not turn over pictures and text messages showing gun and text messages about buying one. angela cory insists they followed the highest standards of ethical behavior. >> shifting our focus to the weather. >> yes, it is very warm. it is warm in the studio and very warm outside. we are in the middle of a heat wave. >> it is summertime t. mercury is rising at 5:00 in the morning. it's bad in new york city. indra peter southerns is outside. you picked the wrong morning. what's going on. >> 80 degrees with 70% humidity. awesome. it's what we are dealing with. we are talking 5:00 in the morning here. let's look at the temperatures. we are looking at 80s and upper 70s across the entire area. as we go through the afternoon, we are going to talk about
