I have a question for you Cboldt:
Who do you think the 85 potential jurors were that got sent home early without a visit to the courtroom???
We saw a whole array of people come to that courtroom — those with issues, those with handicaps, those with language problems, those with children, those with financial issues, those with an attitude, an over-representation of blacks ..... that all made it through to the courtroom for an interview.
So then just who were the 85 sent home without an interview??? What did they say, do, write or look like that got them summarily screened out and sent home that didn’t get the other 35 or so summarily sent home???
Anyway, that's my best guess at the moment. I suppose some of them were rejected as being over 70, or having a child under the age of 3, or on some other statutory ground. But most of them were rejected because they viewed the case through more than just the media lens. Even E-81, who was pro-Zimmerman, claimed to not have gone on the internet.
