Re: A death penalty case: you be the judge *DELETED*
Voir dire was pretty heavy on death penalty attitudes, though potential jurors who voiced anti-death penalty beliefs got a pretty thorough going over. I suppose the court knew there would be a large number of potentials who would try to use it. The jury pool had 600 people. 12 jurors and 4 alternates were selected.
I felt pretty ill when I heard my number called.
