In addition to age, occupation, marital status and other demographic data, prosecutors and defense lawyers will ask potential jurors on the 30-page questionnaire whether they've had an extramarital affair, how they feel about people who have affairs, whether they've ever lost a child or been a victim of a violent crime, whether they've ever considered a career in law enforcement and if they own a gun
Why ask if they own a gun? that should make no difference.

We're making assumptions that these jurors are not liars.

And like anyone is going to put "IN WRITING" that they have had an affair.

I'd be tempted to write "None of your business" on a questionnaire like this.
