I served years ago on a one day trial of a woman accused of stealing from a supermarket. Her defense was pretty bogus (thus our quick “guilty” verdict), but the overall experience was very good. Both the judge and the woman who worked with the jury (I don’t remember what her title was) took time to explain the process to us and thanked us for serving. My fellow jury members were a very diverse group of people who were all serious about the process and I enjoyed meeting them.

I hear so many people dread this, but I am glad that I had an opportunity to serve. I recently received a jury question form so another opportunity to serve may be coming soon.
