Dismissed juror escorted from zimmerman courthouse

[krych3k]

What a stupid reason to dismiss him. So he posted on Facebook to a status about 'Justice For Trayvon'. Does this mean to suggest that if a juror had posted on Facebook that they believed Zimmerman was in the right that they would get on the jury?
Just because someone has formed an opinion does not necessarily mean they can't listen to all the facts and make a judgement based on those facts.

Dismissing someone because of a Facebook post. Laughable.

Noomi, that juror already had a set belief that Zimmerman was in the wrong. When the court is looking for unbiased members, they look for people who don't know about the case. Doing so helps ensure that their jury is as fair as possible. This juror who was caught didn't just lie about knowing about this case, he also formed a judgment based on knowledge that would have disqualified him in the first place.

If I were a prospective juror, and I already made up my mind that Zimmerman was innocent, how damaging do you think that would be to the entirety of this court case? So... no... it's not just a FB post that's the problem. There's more to it than that.

Noomi probably thinks he (or she?) would be an impartial juror, despite the Facebook post demonstrating otherwise. Of course this was a white trash leftist Obama-supporting Democrat who was there to lynch Zimmerman. The prosecution must be very distressed that he was removed from the jury.

Any potential juror who is found out to be trying to get on the jury in order to convict him should be jailed immediately for at least contempt of court. And concidering what would happen to the defendant if convicted because of this fraud, the juror should get many years in prison.

Any potential juror who is biased either way should not be allowed on the jury. You don't actually imagine that the only people with a bias who want on this jury are those who are biased against Zimmerman? But, maybe you do: right wingers seem to have only one-way vision.

Just because his attorney painted it that way, this is not a poor George getting railroaded scenario. There are two sides to this story. If any legal situation fits that description, this one does.
