Hopefully you're right.

I've been on a couple of juries now. Gender, age and race make a big difference on how people respond to courtroom evidence, if it's considered at all.

I've been on juries, too. I never noticed that race played any role in any of them. Gender and age, perhaps, but all my juries were of mixed races and that played no role.

All juries are made up of U.S. citizens, so there's no worry about that in El Paso. Non-citizens may not serve on juries in this country.

I have no doubt that many jurors are of Hispanic background in El Paso, though. I can't see why that would make any difference though, with an Iranian woman on trial. You do know that Hispanic folks aren't connected to Iran, right?

I can see the backpack sew-on patches now:
