I understand what you're saying. If theres a lot of stuff to go over they usually bring in cots, food etc after the jury gets the case but hell, I have no tv so i don't know exactly whats NORMAL these days. Just seems like they'd WANT to get it done as well. The whole problem with these folks is they are using mob tactics all along. I assume that being so, we can assume the mob would try to influence the jury at every turn. Seems like 12 people wandering around the weekend wouldn't be prudent.
