"They deliberate six hours a day. That's pretty exhausting. Probably more than most juries deliberate."
From what I've heard,during the trial, some jurors came in wearing sandals, kicked 'em off, and rested their bare feet up on the rail. You try that around here and you'll be sitting in a holding cell faster than you can say Birkenstock. I can only imagine how laid back the deliberations are. I'm having a hard time finding a "12 Angry Men" situation here. But I've been wrong MANY times before!LOL!

Well, I can certainly tell you that Texas juries don't head home at 2:30 pm and call it a full day.
Generally, though, we'll get an hour off for lunch.
