I agree with everything you said, but I just wanted to point out that a juror can’t legally be punished. I live in an area where both the city police and the county sheriffs are corrupt. They hold vendettas against anyone that pisses them off. One even stalked and assulted an ex using police lookup tools. Got caught, got slap on the wrist and he’s back at it, just more carefully now.

I hate living here. I wish I could afford to move.
