This story seems to have faded in the wake of events ad nauseam. We are all aware of Senor Luigi. However, most folks can’t recall the full name of the guy that allegedly Luigi gunned down. Mission accomplished.

they will go through a ton of jurors before they will seat one. they needs one dumb enough to be swayed easily by either side. both the defendant and prosecutors are only limited to amount of jurors that strike from a group during jury summons, so they are looking at biases for him and remove them. what they really want is the ones that dont read the news much, or retireers.
This must be a taxing and mentally draining process for all the grown ups in the room.
apparently they take an ENORMOUS amount of time choosing jurors, thats why people hate jury duty. its worst if its grand juries.
retirees? like the ones that spend half their time in a hospital room? paying 300$ for bandaids?
I know old people that defend healthcare companies unfortunately. "Well this one isn't nearly as bad as the others". Give me a break.
i assume those in white collar work that retire earlier than 65, also govt employees are more likely to get selected.
