No doubt the jury gets stacked by attorneys favorable to their side of the equation. IMO they should have no say who is selected. But by what other means could this be done is the question. Either way there needs to be reforms of how this is done.

Yes, I would like to see it reformed. I tried to find out how they used to select jurors. My instinct is that the current process is not the original, but who knows (not me). My only concern is that if defense attorneys have anything to do with it the reforms will be worse than the current system (ie, the defense attorney will handpick the entire jury!) :)
