Thanks for the list. i now understand why it is taking so long. 7 blacks, 4 whites, and 1 oriental. It all depends on the intellectual honesty of the blacks, who doubtless have been inundated with the righteousness of their victimhood--many of them at least. I do actually know some Alabama blacks who I believe would be objective, and many who would not.

Sorry. I got the racial make up wrong. One of those jurors resigned last Friday. Does anyone know the race of that one? There are only 15 left. Of course, you only need one to throw the trial.
