This may be one of the rare cases where a bench trial might give the defendant a better chance of winning an outright acquittal than a jury trial.

Never in a million years would I take that chance.

You would trust ONE man/woman to judge your fate with the kind of pressures they would be under?

At least the jury can remain anonymous.....IF, you could get a fair one.

“At least the jury can remain anonymous.....IF, you could get a fair one.”

My question is, in light of Florida’s “Sunshine law”, which means the trial will be televised, how can the jury remain anonymous? Do the cameras not show the jury?
