I understand the purpose and you seem to have taken my comment to mean something it does not.
It is also ironic that you mention the church because given the geographic location where this trial will likely take place Ultra Religious people will likely be involved.
Further while I do not believe the jury should be made up solely of computer experts, I also do not believe computer experts should be excluded simply because they are experts in the subject matter of the trial which is what happens.
My biggest problem is around the process of jury selection.
- sanderjd 9y agoWhat, specifically, is your problem with jury selection? Prosecutors don't get to pick the jury they want, they have a limited number of vetos, just like the defense. How would you like it to work?
- kwhitefoot 9y agoThe limited number should be much smaller for one thing. In fact I don't see why they should get to object to a jury member at all. If a juror is unfit it should be up to an impartial organ to determine that not the opposing sides in the fight.
- dogma1138 9y agoAnd what that impartial organization would look like? The Jury selection process is more important for the defense than for the prosecution.
