I think judges do a good job with their experience, but they too often tend to get too anal with the letter of the law and loose a bit of their ability to judge. Seems a trained panel could do a better job of looking at cases from different angles, and reaching the most reasonable conclusion. The way we select juries today can often be a real turkey shoot. Think about the type of people who are not excused from jury duty. Depending on the judge juriors can be excused because they have a lot going on at work, because they have a business meeting etc. The self- employed are almost always excused. Especially in a long trial you end up with welfare moms, state employees, and retirees. Hardly our peers. hmmm, not many people get excused from jury duty in taxachusetts. I sure didn't get excused. -- Bob Noel (goodness, please trim replies!!!) |
