        Good luck going though the search history of every single person up for jury selection.

        Also, a “private window” won’t lean jack shit, just means your local personal files won’t save what you do. Cookies and Google and whatnot still do.

        If you want to be anon, use TOR with VPN or at least a VPN.

          If people with intelligence and empathy skip out on jury duty, that leaves idiots and sociopaths to judge the accused.

            Well unfortunately I have a job and a mortgage. If the trial goes longer than the few days that my employer is forced to pay me, and I’m stuck with the $50 a day the state pays, I’m fucked. I don’t consider living on the street a civic duty.

              That’s fair and I’ve had to bail on jury duty for the same reason, although I was able to participate once.

      Most Americans didn’t see any crime…

      You are assuming that this saint protector of the working people could be presumably guilty of a crime

        Oh no, I’m not talking about this case. Just in general, it’d be good of Americans to inform themselves on that.
