I have only been called for one trial... and I was not chosen as a juror, thank god...
The one time I have been called for jury duty...
It was the capital murder case that ended the death penalty in New York...
People vs. LaValle
I went through 2 or 3 rounds of juror selection for that case as I was desperately trying to finish my thesis...
Even the jury selection was emotional, one of the other men called had been a high school teacher of the victim... he did not hold back about what he thought about the accused... he was excused, of course....
