Hi everyone :) I lurk here most of the time and have been a member for sometime. Just letting you know that I am a 'lurkin' member'. Thank you for all your whitty humor, the great updates and just being here each day. I, among many others, appricate it very much.
 
ooh boy - studying mental retardation
 
What juror is this for the morning? How many do we have so far? Any strikes? Thanks, I am just now able to tune in.
 
see problems with the DT for this guy...One: FBI relative..then going on to study special ed stuff....(hmmmmm defense wouldn't be able to fly inmates storyline at this time....
 
OH OH! Classes on mental retardation. DT not going to like he is studying the mind. To bad he would be great for prosecution.
 
this one would be an alternate, right?

I don't think that is known until all of the strikes are used. The first 12 have not been sworn in. It's possible that HHJP is going to wait, because of a window of possible appeal based on people knowing they would be an alternate. I guess it could alter some peoples' answers if they already know they'll be sitting for 8 weeks, and possibly not get to be making a decision.

I think it's for the best, too. I'd rather see them get 15, or so, and then randomly choose the first 12. Yesterday I heard of a case where the judge didn't choose the deciding panel until right before verdict instructions were given.
