      This is a 12-tweet thread suggesting the LEFT will harass jurors in a case where both the accused and the man he is protecting by not pleading have tampered with witnesses. The bankruptcy of the beyond-giving-a-shit-about-self-respect right wing, ladies and gentlemen.https://twitter.com/Techno_Fog/status/1030623550158368768 …

      An editorial on all this... This motion to obtain juror names and addresses DURING DELIBERATION send a message to the jury: Think about what you're doing because we'll show up at your home, at your school, at your place of work to make you answer for what you did.

      Can you explain the media’s need to know juror names and addresses? Is this a normal request?

      Completely. The media likes to talk to jurors after the verdict to learn why they decided in the way they did. Where there names aren't released indiv jurors may come forward, but they often self-select to spin the deliberations.

      It's especially important in a case like this where there's real reason to worry about jury tampering.

          For illustrative purposes only, what will life look like for the individuals once the media has the names/addresses? An phone call?An unannounced visit? What if a juror or jurors declines to speak with media? Would the assumption be he/she was tampered with?

          Both, yes. If a juror declines to speak, no assumption (often the default). You learn about tampering as much from other jurors as anything else. But tampered w/jurors may be most anxious to speak.
