I have been jury coordinator for death penalty cases. I feel sick for the jurors dismissed. I had to sit with alternates while the selected jury deliberated. These jurors have given so much of their time and come to really focus on a case. When they are dismissed, they are almost lost. They have had to consider weighty matters and, now, will be denied deliberations. Deliberations with other jurors is a very healing thing for them to finally talk out everything they witnessed. My heart goes out to juror #11.
