I was put in a juror pool though, glad I did not get picked for the trial. Would not want to sit through that particular case.

3. Juvenile, Aggravated Sexual Assault on another juvenile.
Looked to be a 12 year old male, sexually assaulted younger family member. It happened in 2006, and so the way the attornies kept asking questions, they did not have much evidence and it was going to be a he said/she said type case. It looks like it was not filed until a long time after. So the kid is now 13 to 14. It was going to be an uncomfortable case.

4. yuck.
I have not yet served on a jury, but I hope I won't get something awful when I do someday.

6. I have been in two pools for criminal cases.
And when they ask about criminal justice back ground, I don't get picked.

7. Whenever I read about a horrific criminal case I think of the poor jury.
I would have nightmares. :-(
