A few months ago I was called for jury duty on a civil case over a car accident. When we got into deliberations, one of the jurors wanted to know why there was no DNA to tell us what happened.
She believed DNA was a (no, I’m unfortunately not kidding) just “like a DVD that can be put into a player to watch what happened”. She had seen that on a movie or television show, she could not remember, and argued with us that we should demand the DNA to “watch”.
We eventually did not award any monies to the woman who sued but arguing with the juror and her DNA fantasy took hours. The shear stupidity and ignorance of people is astounding, shocking and frankly afraid for this nation.
well - that’s how it happens on the crime shows.
The scientist looks at test result -stares off to the side- and we all see the crime replayed as it happened.
So what’s your problem?
