re: #268 Eclectic Cyborg

I was worried from the beginning that finding a proper jury for Trump was going to be difficult.

Now, with the media damn near doxxing jurors with Trump egging them on, it may be near impossible.

Be interesting to see how dragged out this selection process gets.

This comes up periodically in cases of a sensational nature - going back to OJ Simpson (both times he went on trial for criminal acts - the double homicide and later armed robbery charges in Nevada). Serial killers. Mass shooters. White collar criminals like Bernie Madoff. They all get lots of press and much is made of the problem of finding a jury that can be impartial.

Yet every time we manage to get a jury that is impartial. We’ll get one here as well. It make take longer than some to get a jury seated (though it still looks like that’ll happen this week). But it will happen.
