Pro tip: If your jury foreperson is an experienced attorney (or a trained hypnotist), the other eleven jurors are not as relevant as you think they should be. #PardonRogerStone https://twitter.com/CarlosL03188054/status/1227963723819737089 …

And it’s fine, if you believe that people are capable of being impartial jurors at all. I don’t think you guys really want to make the case that no republicans can ever preside over the trial of a democrat, do you?

That’s why the prosecution and defense both participate in jury selection, and get to approve jurors or not. Which is what happened in this case. Stone’s defense team - “experienced attorneys” as well - signed off on this jury.

I sat on a jury once. It was an obvious personal injury fraud. The plaintiff had ten lawsuits for various slip and falls and was arguing a vague injury was caused by this fall and not that one. My earliest exposure to two movies on one screen. My fellow jurors believed it all.

The prosecution in your case participated in selecting that jury. That’s the process. If you don’t trust your fellow American peers to sit on a jury, then you don’t have faith in the foundation of our justice system.

That’s why we need professional jurors; especially in cases involving science.

That’s what expert testimony is for. Professional jurors would by definition, not be a jury of peers
