Pinging a few folks to a pretty good column—I don’t have a ping list, so just pinging a few off the top of my head—not a complete list of all interested by any means.

What kind of jurors do jury consultants and thus defense attorneys prefer in homicide cases? Perhaps better not to offend by looking instead at who usually doesn't get selected: College graduates especially those with graduate degrees. The more years you were in college the lower the chance a jury consultant wants you for that jury.

The defense wanted morons on the jury, and that's what they got.

MizSterious, here is that ping for you. (The Casey Anthony trial watchers.)

They don't want people who are willing to work hard to connect the dots. Also if you are an independent thinker, no need to worry - people who prefer consensus and harmony will more likely be selected. Obviously no defense attorney or jury consultant is going to get exactly what they want, but they will try. And of course, it only takes on juror to derail a conviction.
It is said that in the Casey Anthony case we should not blame the jurors. I agree - we shouldn't. That is like buying lemmings as pets and then being surprised when they act lemming like. Those jurors were preferred by the defense team for a reason and they performed as expected

As the lynch mob has been saying. /s/

Thanks for the ping and well worth the read.....great find MizSterious!!! Sheds some light on what many were thinking about these jurors and the selection process...Further it “evidences” many people were correct in how they saw this shameful verdict and those who brought it in.

Thanks...very good read!
