Better hope that person on trial was not from outside the church (I Corinthians 5:12-13). I mean, sure we could adhere to 13 Romans, but then we'd be contradicting I Corinthians. Boy oh boy this is a head scratcher. And then there's Matthew 7:1. Which one does a guy follow?It's the jury's job to determine innocent or guilty. It's the judges job to sentence. I was lucky because there was no question of innocence or guilty. After the judge made a comment about loving North Dakota because people cut through the bs to the truth. I would lose sleep if I found someone guilty that I was not sure of. I adhere to the old rule that it's better to let ten guilty people go than find one innocent person guilty.
called once, served once. A dui case. pretty sure they guy was guilty but all evidence to prove it was not admissible. It took me a little while to get that through to the rest of the folks on the jury that wanted to hang him out to dry.
Never served. Probably never will. My hearing loss will get me tossed no matter what if I want to or not, I watch alot of crime drama on tv like 48 hours which feature court cases, it is a fascinating process but also can see it take a toll on the jurors because they decide the fate of the individual being tried.
I was jury foreman one time... The guy got 20 years.
