One of the Jurors in the Mehserle Trial (BART Shooting in Calif. Bay Area) is leaving because he has a vaction coming up. Why was he allowed to be a Juror in the first place if they knew he was going to leave? Especially for a high-profile case like this?
I am referring to the trial of the ex-BART cop for murder. The shooting occurred in the Bay Area but the trial is being held in LA now. The news reported that a juror is being excused "because of vacation." I thought that one had to have an illness, a sick relative or something serious to be...
their case or would you wait? until the defense got a chance to argue theirs?
Why are so many ready to convict BP without a fair trial? I'll be first in line to support carrying out the sentence AFTER WE FIND OUT WHAT REALLY HAPPENED.
And it seems to be the same people who called the TEA Party...
