Voir dire (French for “to speak the truth”) is the process in a legal trial where judges and attorneys question potential jurors and witnesses to determine their suitability, uncover biases, and ensure they can be fair and impartial, often involving challenges for cause or peremptory challenges to exclude them from the jury or to qualify an expert witness.

Since GJs are secret we can’t even find out the prosecutor who f’ed up.
About 95% of DOJ gave to the Dems. Advancement in DoJ or as attorney depends on fidelity to leftist ideology.
This is the exception to the ham sandwich rule.
