In reply to the discussion: One piece of evidence in the last hearing has changed everything, you can see it. [View all]lastlib
(23,151 posts)25. Any prosecutors out there? Talk me down from this thought.
I'm convinced that the evidence is there to put TFG in the hoosegow for a LOT of years. The one thought that keeps tormenting me is, assuming he is indicted, how the hell will they be able to impanel an "impartial" jury to conduct a trial?? You could call a million jurors, and still have trouble finding twelve that would be impartial in a trial.
Not that I really WANT an impartial jury--I want one that will convict him, but that won't pass judicial muster. And I seriously don't want the charges dismissed on these grounds.
