Random lottery. But in the case presented, the selection isn’t random. Using social media and other records, people are selected who are likely to have a certain prejudice for or against the crime being tried.

That aspect is mentioned in the "What They Don't Want You to See" video, in relation to Stone's case. A jury seemingly selected with certain characteristics - no Republicans, etc. It was reasoned that the data collected on individuals would maybe be used by someone (the deep state) to select people that they wanted for specific purposes.

I have NEVER been asked to be a juror. Never! And I have no idea why. Coincidence?

Hi, can’t speak to your jury avoidance, maybe size of county? I live in a small one and have been called twice, wife called twice, she served on one. I have never made the grade to serve so far.

Most cases never make it to a jury. Plea bargains abound.

“I have NEVER been asked to be a juror. Never! And I have no idea why. Coincidence?”

+++++++++++++++++++++

Jury slide....

That’s because they always call me. I was in one pool and the gal had drunk driven, got into an accident, left the scene, and didn’t have a driver’s license. They said that at the beginning.. then they went through each of us prospective jurors. I was called first and I said..”Excuse me, but if we already know that she drove drunk without a license, had an accident, and fled the scene, why are we here?” And that one little question caused the entire group to be dismissed.

Got on a jury, even though I had vehemently protested the defense attorney’s screensaver that was strategically placed so prospective jurors could see it. I asked the judge how in the world did the defense attorney expect us to be favorable?? 3 long days of mind numbing testimony and a total waste of time. Drunk driver who took off going 80 mph in an intersection in front of 2 cops. There was one other juror who just looked dumb, so the defense attorney tried to confuse several jurors with that new math- like if he had one sandwich and drank 3 big beers would that be equal to a brownie and 2 glasses of wine or some such nonsense.. and lo and behold our dumb looking guy was a mathematician hahaha... guilty in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
