I have this big gut feeling I'll get called for this trial. Or, my wife will. I was selected only a few months after moving to Horry County, so I'm about due again.
I was summoned once and served on the jury. I didn't want to at all and it lasted 3 days but when it was over, I was glad that I did. It was very interesting.
I served on a mock jury for a fellow classmate's senior psych research project. Does that count?![]()

If summoned for jury duty,I'm curious how many here would answer the following question.
Have you formed an opinion about the defendants guilt?

RSBM: That wouldn't work in South Carolina. Voter Registration is just ONE of three ways they find candidates for jury duty. The other two are a SC driver's license and a state issued ID card.In years past, I even went as far as sacrificed my right to vote to try to keep from getting picked to be on a jury.
Good question. I would answer it honestly, which is to say that yes, I have formed an opinion. I THINK they are guilty, but I don't KNOW that they are. My opinion is fluid, not concrete, and I would never convict anyone of any crime, let alone murder, based solely on my ill-informed opinion. I'm not sure that I could be completely unbiased, though, just due to how vile of a person TM is. I'd like to think I could, but I'm not certain.If summoned for jury duty,I'm curious how many here would answer the following question.

:clap::clap::clap:I would answer the question honestly... Absolutely 100%.
Those who are willing to defile the justice system by telling lies or speaking half-truths belong in the courtroom... but only as a defendant.
My HONEST answer would be...
Yes, based on the information made available to me at this time, I believe the Ms are guilty. However, I haven't seen every piece of evidence, I haven't heard witness or expert testimony, and I haven't heard an explanation from the Ms as to why everything about the disappearance of HE seems to point in their direction. My opinion regarding the Ms guilt may change when I have all the pieces of the puzzle. BUT let me be clear: I have a lot of knowledge about the details in this case. I've researched those details thoroughly, ad nauseam, and I've spent countless hours talking about them with my fellow sleuth friends online. So, unfortunately, I cannot say with honesty or a clear conscience that I would enter this courtroom and presume their innocence because I simply don't believe they are at this point.
