” I would be worried too for the defense because they don’t know what the jury is thinking and how they are leaning”

From my experience of being on three jury's recently, young folks are the worst. This is is an all female jury, but not young and stupid

“being on three jury’s recently, young folks are the worst”

I’m with you on that. I sat on a 3-week trial in Ventura, CA, where more than half the jury were in their early 20s — arrogant, liberal, shallow, stupid, mouthy, and ready to take on the world. It was one of the most awful experiences of my life. In the jury room there was more discussion of, and more weight was given to, the way-cool high heels of one attorney, and the extreme goober-like appearance of another attorney. Those issues actually impacted their decision; facts were not a big consideration.
