Jury Selection
Sep. 1st, 2004 03:18 pmA few days ago, a 10-year old child shot and killed his father during a custody visit. This is a horrible and tragic event. But I want to talk about jury selection.
I have already confessed my sin of listening to conservative talk radio. Well, this week was no different. Several of the local hosts spent time, a lot of time, on this issue. They questioned whether a 10-year old child would know the consequences of his actions. They discussed what might happen if the boy is found guilty of this crime. There was a lot of passionate discussion with the callers. I was surprised at what I heard.
