Jury Duty

This past week I had the opportunity to do my civic responsibility.....Jury Duty.
Although I have been called for Jury Duty many times in the past, this was my first in the Federal Court System and my first where I was actually chosen.

It was a very rewarding experience. The case was extremely interesting, the Judge, David Hittner, was exceptional and I met some fascinating fellow jurors.

I won't go into too much detail as, unfortunately, we failed to reach a unanimous verdict. As is usually the case when you put 12 persons in a room, you will come out with varying opinions of what the evidence means.

The most important thing I learned this week, is how important our Justice system is and that it works.

This was truly a very rewarding experience and I am very glad I had the opportunity to serve.
