nameraka Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 It's okay. Just make sure, if you're called, to have really entrenched opinions and don't shut up about them. You'll be home by lunch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll send you home. Once I got picked to possibly be picked and out of the group of 20-30 they took mostly people with law experience which I thought was weird cuz waaay back when they would never pick anyone with a legal background. So whatever you do don’t say you’re a lawyer 😬 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was called in and went because why not. When asked what I did in my spare time to unwind, I honestly said that I watch lots of cartoons late at night. I was put on a federal trial. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insipid Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 The one time I got summoned, I got selected and had to sit through an entire trial. At least I'm off the hook for about five more years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd Man Rush Posted July 15, 2022 Author Share Posted July 15, 2022 Update, I jumped the gun! But in my defense I have informed delivery which sends me emails notifying of incoming mail for that day complete with pictures and everything. So when I see a mail piece that with Jury Department on the front and "Failure to respond may result in penalties provided by the law" what else am I going to think it is. But anyway it's just a jury questionnaire. What a relief but now I'm going to be paranoid from here on end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your opinion of Police in general? Do you have any problem with rendering a verdict for or against those considered to be in authority? In one of the towns, everyone had to do at least 2 cases in the day. I had the same prosecutor for both & he asked me if there was anything he did in the first case that would lead me to find for or against him as a prosecutor.

Probably because either a cop was on trial or was the “victim.” They intentionally don’t ask that question so potential jurors can’t pollute the pool.

naraku360 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I probably shouldn't get jury duty since the only answer I would be compelled to give is "off with their head!" but I know I'd wimp out and end up being selected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for the sake of discussion yes, I have multiple disorders including ADHD that make it hard to stay focused on a given task. I actually like the way people have been reacting to me, it challenges me to do better. My goal is to take labeling off the media I see and replace it with empathy. Pretty cut and dry.
