You wouldn’t be on the jury. Sky-high jury selection consultants would eliminate you almost before the judge started questioning you. That’s how jury consultants earn big bucks.
(I saw the jury consultant eliminate me after I had answered only one queston. I sat there and witnessed it. They may charge a lot, but they know what they’re doing.)
If United's offer to provide financial compensation to other passengers is a de facto case of "witness tampering," then Dao's attorney is currently engaged in a de facto case of "jury tampering."
It works both ways -- doesn't it?
