“I was told that happens all the time,” Ms. Flanders said of what she viewed as an improper stop-and-frisk. “If that happens all the time in that neighborhood, in America, that’s not good enough.”

During deliberations, she said, she encouraged her fellow jurors to “look at the letter and the spirit of the law.”

Last week, jurors acquitted Mr. Almonor of all three counts he faced, the most serious of which was felony assault. Prosecutors had accused him of punching a female officer during the melee in the precinct. Jurors said they quickly rejected that claim because the officer did not show signs of injury. In fact, jurors said, Mr. Almonor seemed like the most level-headed person in the station house that evening.

One juror, Marnie Ortiz, said she did not believe that the female officer could have been punched by a man of Mr. Almonor’s size and then gotten up and continued doing her job that night.

“I think she’s trying to play the system to be out sick and get full pay,” Ms. Ortiz said.

Many jurors shared smiles and sympathetic conversation with the Almonors outside of the courtroom on Tuesday.

Jurors acquitted Ms. Doré-Almonor last week of a misdemeanor count of trespassing, but convicted her of a trespass violation, which is not a crime. They would have acquitted her of resisting arrest, jurors said, but for the lone holdout who, according to other jurors, said on the first day of deliberations Thursday, “I am going to hang this jury.”

Ms. Flanders said she believed the holdout had a personal grudge against Ms. Doré-Almonor. Jurors did not identify the holdout. Prosecutors declined to comment on any aspect of the case.

Peter Kyle, the jury foreman, said the episode in the station house could have been avoided if the police had produced Ms. Doré-Almonor’s son when she asked. Instead, Mr. Kyle and other jurors said, the police seemed to egg her on.

While they stopped short of calling the police racists, they said race seemed to play a role.

“This sounded,” Mr. Kyle said, “like an illegal stop-and-frisk.”
