Juror #3 MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Juror #3? Juror #3 is an ESTJ personality type in MBTI, 8w7 - sx/sp - 863 in Enneagram, SLOEN in Big 5, SLE in Socionics.

I think there are 2 possible reasons why he changed his vote (I also wrote for Juror 7. Also his reason for vote confused me.) 1st (emotional approach) He compared the suspect to his son. As a father, he would not have been executed if his son had done the same. He imagined his son in the same situation. He voted "not guilty" because if his son was in this situation he wouldn't want jurors to vote "guilty" 2nd (logical approach) He realized that it was unethical to allow his feelings for his son influence the vote. He finally stopped being emotional and accepted his true opinion. He became convinced that the defendant was truly innocent and realized that he should not take out his anger towards his son on another child. He voted "not guilty" because he knew the boy may be innocent and he knew allowing his feelings towards his son is not logical. i don't really know. both seem possible what do you guys think? you can also check my theory on Juror 7's vote.

Biography

As described in the original screenplay: "40 years old. Head of messenger service. A very strong, very forceful, extremely opinionated man within whom can be detected a streak of sadism. A humorless man who is intolerant of opinions other than his own, and accustomed to forcing his wishes and views upon others."
