Oh lordy, I need to get off this thread for the night.

BUT...on NG, they're talking about Juror #5 being in the gallery, and that she really shouldn't be. That the other jurors know she's been released, probably don't know why, but with her in the courtroom, it's hanging over them. And that there's a concern about her making any kind of eye contact with jurors.
Could you imagine being on the jury, with all those sidebars, and being uncomfortable that you might make eye contact if you scan the gallery? I wonder if Juror #5 won't be in the courtroom after today.
