Going to the snow travel expo first before meeting friends too. Contest to win a trip to Big White![]()
Thought you might find this interesting from the court room some spectator yelled out in court and carrying her shoes. She still killed somebody. Judge gave her two days in jail![]()
Why was the spectator carrying shoes? What did they yell out? Is it the spectator that got two days in jail?
So it was a juror who yelled that?
So why did they have to let the juror go?
Well you run the risk of tainting the juror with remarks. If I remember right I think she was having a problem with the death penalty. So when it happend the defense attorney said he wanted her removed for cause due to the comment and the out burst. They did bring her back in and asked her what she heard, cant remember what she said, but a man did approach her and spoke with her and she told the judge she thought he was a detective. So he excused her with no explanation.
See now that's the question, when the world comes to an end, what time zone wil it happen? I think it's already Saturday there and the world hasn't ended!

What affiliation do you have to go that expo? And why don't you enter a contest to goto a better ski area?
I'm totally confused. Why is a single juror kicked out because of someone in the court audience yelling?

Hi Usnuz! Long time since I've seen you....![]()
Because anything may taint one jurors opinon. This why jurors are instructed to not watch, read or speak to anyone about the case as it may change your mind. You have to believe that they are fully innocent until proven guilty. They really dont know if this person could now the other, could have set it up to distract. And the defense asked that the juror be dismissed as she may have already been swayed on the opinion from that statement.
So only one juror was escused not the whole jury?
Skiingfast....where do you ski? and where would you recommend we ski?
I take it you have never seen jury selection before? It is something else. Alot goes on during the process. I have always had an interest in law.
