The only time I ever served on a jury (I've been called 3 times), it was a murder trial.

We let the killer go. Sounded like self-defense to all 12 of us.

How much of a big smile did the prosecutor have on his face when your verdict was read to the Court? ;)

I served on a petit jury twice here in my county. At the risk of sounding elitist, I will never break the law because the concept of a “jury of your peers” is bogus. I was absolutely stunned at the sheer stupidity of some of the individuals I served with.
