2011.05.10 - Jury Selection Day Two

[shellsbells]

If I had to cancel my trip to Panama, the first trip I had been able to take after taking over this business and working so hard, in order to sit on the jury for a girl that lied for years about having a job, I would be bitter. Perhaps he is a better person than I. :crazy:

 

[logicalgirl]

So are we up to five "yes's" so far?
This gentleman runs group homes for delinquent children - on call for placing emergency kids in foster homes - whoa this guy has a busy calendar including getting married in ten weeks. Hardship for all four programs he handles. Not a keeper.

 

[Chiquita71]

1440: Hardship? Yes it would. I run group homes for delinquent children. In ten weeks he plans to get married.

HHJP: You work with children and it would be a hardship...

excused.

 

[Mrs G Norris]

This guy is great, no way will CM be badgering him, exactly the wrong kind of candidate for the DT.

 

[twall]

male, missed his #, runs group homes for abused and neglected children in PC, on call all the time, places children in emergency foster care, sounds like a good guy, getting married in 10 wks.
sounds like a good guy but it would be a hardship for him, he has a lot of responsibilites,
excused

Juror # 1440
Male
Yes hardship - runs group homes for foster care children - shelter for neglected abused children - always on call - works for abused children

Excused...

 

[cloud9]

This is tough! I know there will be a jury, but people are suffering in many ways. All this because ICA "allegedly" killed Caylee. Amazing.

 

[Tipstaff]

Morning all - just checking in. Any juror candidates yet this morning?

 

[LiveLaughLuv]

1440 - male, runs group homes for deliquent children and 24 foster homes on call 24-7 for emergency placement. He has to be in Daytona for a foster care conference to recruit foster parents. Has to cover a group home for someone going on maternity leave. This potential juror is getting married.

#1440- male
hardship-runs group homes & foster homes, for abused children, on call 24/7
darn, he'd be sympathetic to prosecution

definately not what Mason wants on this jury....abused children, foster care...even ICA gave a smirk when he said he's due to be married....he's gone...

 

[bananarama]

Even if it wasn't a hardship, he would be excused. No way the DT wants him on their jury. ICA smiled when he said he was getting married.

 

[shellsbells]

Question: what happens if, when HHJP asks a prospective juror if they watched the news or looked at the internet, they say "yeah, actually, I couldn't help myself." Are they just excused, or are they in trouble?

 

[Kentjbkent]

Oh, Mason is gonna try hard to keep this guy!!!!

 

[Eidetic]

This juror says he is going to Puerto Rico, his uncle is sick and dying.

 

[watcher9]

I noticed that ICA was demoted down the table today.
I wonder if it was because JB didn't want to listen to her cry today or because CM had to move her out of his chair yesterday.
Anyway, they sure did put her in her place.

 

[BigFatMommyDog]

Morning all - just checking in. Any juror candidates yet this morning?

1188: did you heed my admonishment? yes. my uncle is sick. dying of cancer. going to puerto rico because uncle is dying. nervous. took pills his doctor gave him. affects his muscles. gets nervous and his muscles get tight.

[logicalgirl]

Whoa - listen to this moaner! Has a sick uncle - gotta see him before he dies - but not sure if he is actually dying - and he is very nervous - takes pills - muscles get tight when he's nervous - even Mason is chuckling -not a keeper

 

[Softail]
