re: Tales from Jury Duty . . .

Personally I think juries should have qualifiers but someone would claim discrimination. For a robbery anyone should be callable. For tax fraud a financial background would be required. Etc. it would be nice to see lawyers win based on facts and evidence rather than showmanship and emotions. Razzle Dazzle. And the Summary verdict is much abused. A single judge deciding a case cannot get a trail. It's good to weed out frivolous cases with no true claim but is abused to throw out cases with merit.

"I can tell a guilty person just by looking at him" is an old George Carlin joke.
