I've never been called for jury duty - I have friends who have been called 3 or 4 times - I always thought it might be interesting to serve on a jury.

It is very interesting - I was on the jury for a murder case - the defendant had pled guilty of the murder, we just had to decide what kind of murder it was - plain murder or murder in the process of committing another crime. They had plea bargained to not give the death penalty - I'm glad for that - I'd hate to have to sentence someone to death.

I've been called 2 or 3 times for jury duty. Twice it never went ahead and the third time I went in and the lawyers were choosing who to keep as jurors. After we had a lunch break we came back in and they excused everyone to go home because while we were in line to go in a woman was telling another woman all about what had happened and that was a big no-no. They ended up getting another jury but it never went to trial because a deal was made. It was a murder trial and I really wasn't looking forward to being a part of it anyway.
