As a court clerk, I am well-versed in the jury-selection process. First a
computer randomly selects a few hundred citizens from the entire county
to report for jury duty on a particular day. Then another computer
assigns 40 of those present to a courtroom. Then the 40 names are
placed in a drum, and a dozen names are pulled. During jury selection
for one trial, the judge asked potential Juror No. 1 if there was any
reason he could not be a fair and impartial juror. "There may be," he
replied. "Juror No. 12 is my ex-wife, and if we were on the same jury, I
guarantee we would not be able to agree on anything." Both were excused.
