Attorney meets the 'jury pool from hell'
Defense attorney Leslie Ballin called it the "jury pool from hell."
Why prospective jurors were rejected:
On the other hand, they were all honest (about revealing such things). What I find really scary are the people who are like this, or worse, and are not forthcoming. That is a real jury from hell.
What if she was guilty?
Why prospective jurors were rejected:
One man was high on morphine;
One man was almost a murderer;
One man was arrested for soliciting sex from an undercover officer. "I should have known something was up," he said. "She had all her teeth."
On the other hand, they were all honest (about revealing such things). What I find really scary are the people who are like this, or worse, and are not forthcoming. That is a real jury from hell.
The case involved a woman accused of hitting her brother's girlfriend in the face with a brick. Ballin's client was found not guilty.
What if she was guilty?
