I was lucky. Ever since a certain high profile murder trial of a sports legend, I completely lost faith in the jury system, but since I worked for a police agency, no one would ever pick me anyway. I was also soured on our judicial system when I was supoened to appear in court testifying for the State of WA that Radars actually worked. The only reason I was ordered to appear was that the blankety blank defense attourney hoped I wouldnt show up so he could get his scumbag client off. When I hit 65, in the state of wa, I didnt need a medical exemption letter to get out of this travesty of justice. I fully support Archy Bunker's assessment of who is actually on juries.I am VERY sorry to say I"m out. Got a "Jury Duty" letter in the mail today....I'm on call all of June.
But the last time I went in for a jury selection and when it was over they told us we had done out duty and were done. If that happens I'll pack quick and motor toward Spearfish!
