To: no-to-illegals

There are so many people who think being on a jury is like some reality show, as in, let’s vote for this one to move on to the next round of his life, or let’s vote that one off the island and into prison. I’ve served a couple of times, nothing even close to a case like this, but you aren’t there to ‘feel’ that some one is probably guilty, or that ‘maybe he could have done something else besides shoot’. You have to work with what evidence is presented and decide whether the state proved its’ case or not. If they didn’t, what you might feel is of no consequence whatsoever. To let your personal feelings get in the way is to let the whole justice system down. It’s an awful responsibility for $10 a day + mileage.
