If you were foolish enough to actually *say* that during jury selection.
I think I have the whole "sheep" thing down (or so I think), along with the
"maneuver one's self to be the foreman once deliberations start" which is
also very useful, (or so I hear). Keep your mouth firmly shut, and answer
the questions the way sheep do, till you're sequestered, would be my
advice. At that point whip out the FIJA information (from memory, you might
get arrested if you bring literature in) and share with the rest of the jury
the duty to judge the *law* as well as the facts.
I won't confirm or deny in this post whether I'm talking from experience or
not but it presumably would be a matter of public record whether I've ever
been on a jury if you can figure out the right jurisdictions to search. :-)
