How about if we told you nobody's getting a book deal out of this?
Jurors seem keen to serve on Michael Jackson jury.
Don't get me wrong. Jury duty is a civic responsiblity. Part of the price we pay to participate in this No Limit Hold'em game we call America is the understanding that we can be called to sit in judgement of our fellow man, should they be involved in a civil dispute, or be charged with a crime. Everyone who serves on any jury helps keep our system running, whether they sit on a multi-million dollar civil claim, a murder case, or a speeding ticket.
That said, isn't it just a little creepy to imagine people eagerly clamoring for their chance to spend the next few months of their lives listening to stories of child sexual abuse?
