Man you guys got it easy.......

I had to go last year and sat through jury selection for three damn days...... :banghead:

Didn't even get called up to get asked questions.

If memory serves it was a carjacking case with a side of aggravated assault, little punk's face said it all (trying to look like a badass while jury selection was underway  :thumbdown: )..

IMHO, it was a harsh reality knowing what kind of people get selected.....Bunch of people with no opinion on life.

Several years back, I was in the pool for a group of 6 guys that tried to do a takeover robbery of a Denny's in the I.E.    They didn't get away before the cops got there so there is a restaraunt full of people, multiple cops, and others that all i.d. these guys.
Why is there even a trial here?  So there were 6 lawyers and 6 DA's and 6 of every damn other thing squeezed into this little room for a few days.  What a waste of resources.
