Here's his description in the front of the script:
"He is an angry, bitter man---a man who antagonizes almost at sight. He is also a bigot who places no values on any human life save his own. Here is a man who has been nowhere and is going nowhere and knows it deep withing him."
He is a bigot and a racist, and one of the last jurors to vote not guilty. He is very stubborn and doesn't understand why it's taking so long to reach a verdict. To him, "those people" (meaning whatever ethnicity the kid on trial is), are "potential menaces to society" and he doesn't "want any part of them." As the play goes on, he continually fights against those who are voting not guilty, for no particular reason but his prejudice. Near the end, all of his prejudice and hate comes out in a big monologue. As he is speaking, the other jurors turn their backs on him. He soon comes to realize that there is no foundation for his prejudices and is ashamed at his outburst. He finally votes not guilty and sits down silent, defeated, and embarrassed.
I hope that helped!
