    Why would she be? I wonder if she had prior knowledge of the videos/witnesses/the case?
    I thought you said you've served on a jury before, so you would understand the selection process...now I'm not sure I believe you...

    Good thing she was dismissed....Did she have prior knowledge of the case?
    Did any of the jurors?

    I may be splitting hairs ... but was she dismissed or just not used? Seems to me that dismissal would be for a cause.

    She wasn’t dismissed. She was an alternate. Why do you keep asking the same stupid and entirely irrelevant question. She was accepted by both the prosecution and the defense. Why do you continue to insult these jurors?

    Of course I understand the process. You don’t. You think the attorneys didn’t ask her? You are just mind numbingly stupid.

    That’s more than ‘splitting hairs’. She was an alternate. She was NOT dismissed.

    Yeah, I knew she was an alternate ... and now I repeat what I said in post 15 ... "EVERYBODY WANTS TO GET IN THE ACT"

    She was dismissed after closing arguments...one of two.... before deliberations....

    Alternates are nothing more than spectators. They have no interaction with the 12 jurors or judge whatsoever (unless the judge calls on them). None. Their opinion is meaningless. No more than another reporter's opinion who was at the trial. 15 minutes of fame...
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Yes, three convictions of Chauvin, including murder.

    Because she was an alternate. That's not 'dismissed'. She was no longer needed. You haven't answered my question. Why do you keep insulting these jurors by suggesting that they acted inappropriately? I assume that's projection on your part.

    I guess the folks at CBS news disagreed with you. Just another juror who heard the evidence and would have convicted. Which tosses your 'intimidation' narrative out the window. Because it was always just laughably stupid.

    My point is that what you said was worthless.

    Let them. Then they were never a foreman on a jury in Federal court. I was. The alternates are meaningless unless called upon by the judge. Fact. Period.
