would what happened to your cousin have affected your judgement in ruling on the facts? if yes, then you did the right thing. But in many cases, defense attorney's simply ask these questions to arbitrarily exclude people and shape the juries to their liking.
I was being honest with myself; I just as easily could have sat on the jury -- heck, you know me -- I could have SWAYED the jury.
I just didn't want to serve on a jury like that, do you understand?
