	I know a guy who was on a murder trial jury where there was video of the crime.....two of the jurors said that they couldn't  vote guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt because the video could have been faked.....it's amazing anyone gets convicted in 2011.<br />
	<br />
	Last time I was called I was in a jury pool of 40 folks and they told us details of the crime. It was an older gentleman in his 60's who was busted with less than an ounce of pot. When the lawyers were done they asked if there were any questions and I raised my hand and asked how they could justify the cost to taxpayers and the time of the jurors on such a trivial crime...I was immediately dismissed and haven't been called back since.</div></blockquote>

	I would keep my mouth shut and get on the jury and vote to acquit in most drug cases.<br />

	I've been called 3 times but I've never ended up on a jury.  I suppose I'd have an easy out by telling a prosecutor I went to law school and I know what weasels they are, but it hasn't come to that.
