My sister served on a jury a couple of years ago and after it was all over she chatted with a friend who is a cop and was furious to find out common knowledge info which was never presented in court. All bureaucracies are are by nature inefficient :(

I am sitting here filling out a 4 page jury pool questionnaire with really nosy questions. Apparently there are so many law enforcement personal in our tiny town that they try to eliminate all the auto excused people who are in law enforcement, friends with cops & BP, etc in order to make the process less of a time waster for people. They have not had a case go to trial in 3 years so I am keeping my fingers crossed for a one day thing at most.
