Who now that they can, will go and read everything. And watch everything. And find it hard to sleep.

BBMThey will most certainly be curious and hopefully logical enough that even after their post service education on the whole matter ... still know that they DID THEIR CIVIC DUTY and based on what was presented to them did exactly as told as a juror.
Think of all we read over the years that wasnt introduced at trial... think of all that went on over the last ten weeks that the jury was waltzed out and didnt get to see or hear from various people because it was more prejudicial than probative?
I would much rather think I live where system does randomly err on a side we do not like, than to put away people when we are not 100% sure.
On the Casey Anthony front she was tried in public, she was convicted in public, she may even make some dough on it for a screen play sale or something .. but what life will she lead ( I know Sweet Caylee doesnt get to live) but she will fade for many but she has to keep being Casey which means ...a mentally unstable, untrusting, effed up person has to try and function in a very competitive society where the masses have no patience for liars or child killers.
Yes, they will be curious, yes they will hurt in knowing what they had to do, but I hope the reason we have the verdict we do is they did the right thing by what was instructed of them.
I try to be incredibly fair and always thought I would be a good choice for any jury, I got called once and it was a child sexual assault molestation ... it was the most confused few days of my life listening to all the information and then trying to make a decision, only to learn after a great deal more facts about the guy and priors afetr we had found him not guilty. Do i believe he was guilty, hell yeah did i get that information during the trial - NO. Very unfair to the victim. Also unfair in my case i served was they were immigrants and knew not one iota of the english language. So it was all interpreters in the courtroom and then as victims these folks had no idea how to function as a victim in our system and so in a way did themselves a dis service by just being non verbal?
It was very difficult to serve on that jury and I will think of that child always ...and thank god it wasnt a murder. I feel for these poor folks, to get out and learn more of her years of lying and stealing from people and probably have to know in their gut they released a killer.
It isnt easy, it could be us
