Actually, I wasn't clear: I meant ANY jury ANYWHERE.

Would you?

I'm required to report for J-Duty on the 21st. Hope it's a minor case.

I was called not long ago; the case was a guy who was trafficing in cocaine (supposedly).

When the DA asked me if I could be fair, I said no. I was excused.

I just heard about this story and I'm in Atlanta. Jeez, a story happens in Baghdad and I find out about it quicker than when it happens in my own backyard.

I had jury duty at this courthouse a few months ago. Actually, I wasn't chosen. It was pretty funny though. I am basically the only white face in the room. I go to the courthouse in a nice suit and heels. I am so out of place.

During the voir dire portion lawyers asked the others questions about crime and how it personally related to their families. Every one in that room had a relative in prison or at one time in prison. They get to me and the lawyer actually laughed and asked me some softball question about my feelings on the death penalty of all things. Only question I got. I was dismissed.
