Thank you Peter for keeping us updated on the juror issue post-trial in this case! 💗 I always value your opinions, insights, and expertise on these cases from a legal perspective.
I recently had my first jury selection. Spent all day at the courthouse and right before lunch they started asking us voi dire questions. There were a couple very benign questions that I didn't think could exclude anyone or include anyone. And then they asked if there was anybody who like to follow certain crimes or cases on the internet. I had to raise my hand. There was a little chuckle. And then when we got back from lunch I was dismissed along with 24 other people. I don't know if that's why I wasn't selected or not, but I think probably yes.
This juror was not only a DV victim; she was also charged with being a DV perpetrator herself & her son grew up to be charged in his teens with SA. I want to just throttle this prosecutor.
Well the daughter talked to press while still under oath AND walked out during defendant testimony which is also not permitted. The courtroom was not run well.
I missed the live. This Juor came in and asked her records be sealed (pro se) motion. It was denied and she was sitting in court during the hearing to inquire about this. I hope you understand how I put that.
Melanie little interviewed someone that watched the trial, and was there at this hearing. Juror 15 was in the courtroom and talked to the judge before the hearing, then sat in the courtroom after the juror’s motion was denied. (Juror wanted their records sealed).
Peter, You didn't comment that the judge said she would be getting an atty from the court IF SHE qualifies. So, doesn't go with her not being harmed by being a juror as you discussed. My guess, most would NOT qualify for a FREE atty??? Wonder what the qualifications of financial are?
What is up with these juries?? We need to educate these jurors more then we do. Every single case in the last months , has problems with the jury. Then need to fill out a questionnaire. Then the lawyers need to ask better question. Maybe we need to change the questionnaire. It you don't understand then you shouldn't be picked. We just had a jury ask What does like in prison means? Yet they are deciding if you go to prison for life or not.
I’m really wondering if this will affect KR. No wonder they took it to SC. KR couldn’t get this kind of ruling from Judge Bev regarding the jurors finding KR not guilty. Is Florida juror rule different than Massachusetts?
Good video! Question for our re-watch chat. I was looking at the merch, and the meme lawful law again made me laugh. Which trial is this referring to? I’ve racked my brain but we have covered soooo many cases!
If you fill out the questionnaire truthfully, then you should have nothing to worry about. If you don't fill it out truthfully, would you want that person on your jury?
After the Karen Reid, trusting is… you’d think an abused juror would have been in favor of the defense’s argument. It didn’t happen. Perhaps it was known in hope of a hung jury
From the chat during the trial, many people were claiming they were victims and never believed her. Also, she wasn’t just a victim, but was also accused of it and her son was arresting for DV and she bailed him out
@@cindyb7087 I don't think they know who the juror with the cellphone might be. Some RU-vid online guy in chat during the trial claimed he was communicating with a juror. I don't think they even know who that guy is.
Just watched the podcast with your sweet wife. You are both great. You are such a nice person and I’d love to meet you but respectfully I have to say you interrupted her way too much. Just sayin’.
