“I don’t recall the 13th Juror terminology....”
Judge: “Overruled!”
O’Mara: “Your honor the case ....”
Judge: “Overruled!!! We only have 6 jurors,
so that case does not apply. Now sit DOWN!”
>> We only have 6 jurors, so that case does not apply. Now sit DOWN!
lol
OK your honor...
I had never heard the thing at all until I read
STATE OF TENNESS EE v . DALE KEI TH LARK IN
I was actually in the jury pool for this case. We all did a 20 page questionnaire. I was not selected, but did follow the trial, to the extent that our sorry local media covered it
I was shocked at the guilty verdict, but was assured by someone with a connection to a juror that the jury got what they needed to convict.
The appellate court obviously disagreed.
