Of course that's what he wants to do. Reject all of them and then have the judge declare a mistrial when they can't seat a full jury.
I just like that, for the past couple of days, he’s had to sit there and listen to people offer their unfiltered opinions about him as they were entered into the public record. Honestly, I was kinda hoping it’d go on for another day or two so he’d have a rage stroke.
TBF I bet the prosecution feels the same way...the juror strike system is designed to make compromises.
"Man, if I didn't have to follow all these rules, I would be winning right now!"
But he can only make deals, not compromises.
Cant expect any different from the rotten orange pussy
Oh, this isn't The Onion, this is real news.
You couldn't pay me enough to be a juror for that trial. Sure, just paint a target on my back for this cult leader who's backed by half the government!
They pay $15 a day where I live. I expect they will get similar lol
Mine pays $4 for the first day, and $12 per subsequent day if the trial lasts longer than one day. Parking in the attached garage is $15 per day.
Lol they give you the money then take it right back. You would think the justice system would be more fair than that
It's a legal system.
I'd happily do it. I'm not a us citizen, though.
And I'm grateful for the people who are willing to do such a thankless task!
