Laying down the law one charge at a time. Defense lawyers are the meanest, baddest, most annoying dudes ever. And I mean ever. Like, ever. They have this way of getting in your face and being just down right rude and annoying.We were told yesterday in court that being selected for jury duty is a privilege. Um. To who? I pay $22 a day to park, only get a $10.20 per diem for food, and am only paid $10 a day to sit on jury. Now, couple that with the fact that I have to miss a week's worth of work, am not actually allowed to read papers, watch the news or listen to the radio in case I see something on this case which would offer me a biased view - I would have to ask for more evidence as to where my privilege is. It's deep in there I'm sure... Other than that, it's been pretty neat. I have seen some pretty cool shit come across as the evidence (just big guns with equally big names. Pfeuf.) and holy crap was it ever intimidating. Fucking cool though. The people on the jury are a bunch of cool cats - interesting folks actually. This could be the start to a long time in that jury room deliberating. Sigh. As soon as the case is over and done with - I can give some more detail. Until then my fine feathered friends...
