Show up to jury selection naked. If anyone says anything you tell them you thought you had to wear a suit to court and this is the only one you have.

Bring a stuffed beaver, that’s always a crowd pleaser.

A few of them were saying that there wasn’t enough proof and the videos/audios didn’t prove anything. Some of the videos didn’t give a perfectly clear shot of his face, but there was no mistaking it was him. It just seemed like the other jurors had an attitude because they got selected for jury duty. The defendant didn’t testify and his defense was that the CI’s (two women) coerced the evidence out of him by promising him sexual favors. There was no evidence of that, and these women were some of the ugliest women I’ve ever seen in my life. The defense basically just attacked the character of the CI’s, because they not had prior criminal records and never addressed the physical evidence. He had been in jail for almost 3 years waiting on this trial and ended up getting time served while we were deliberating. Apparently you can’t use counterfeit money to pay for your bail money.

They will ask each potential juror a set of simple questions (yes, you will have to answer them in front of everybody) and they will begin the jury selection process. Last time, about 2 years ago, I was selected for a criminal trial, but I was released because it was a felony car accident, and I'm a radio traffic and news reporter. The Defense Attorney wanted nothing to do with me. I just got a summons for Federal Jury Service at the end of the month. United States District Court. That will be interesting. |

If you get selected, the experience will vary wildly based on the case. Some of them can be resolved in an afternoon. Rarely, they take months. I'd guess most are in the 2-3 days range. |

If/when they call you back, you’ll get some standard questions to see if you will or won’t be biased towards the case. They asked me if I knew the defendant, how I felt about the police, what I did for a living, how I felt about the particular crime, and some other basics questions. I answered every pretty neutral and ended up getting selected. A lot of people will be trying to get out of jury duty that are there with you.
