I was on a jury three years ago

9. I remember some jurors from the OJ trial

saying they voted to acquit because they were sick of being sequestered and just wanted to get on with their lives.

I also sometimes volunteer to sit on mock juries for the local law school students. There was one where a woman who was a writer refused to believe that the defendant could be guilty because "nobody could ever go out and murder someone on the day that they found out their first book was going to be published."

Makes me extra motivated to avoid any possible scenario where I might be put in front of a jury of my peers.
