I wish that question had been on my pre-selection survey. Piasladic Apr 2022 #1

My first and probably last jury selection was god-awful.

During the voir dire, more than half of the potential female jurors were excluded because either they or someone they were close to were victims of sexual assault... and that was what the case was about!
