RE: I think it is possible that a wife of a lawyer who knows she is being called up to be on a jury might talk to her husband about it. Might look on the internet about Martin’s history.

Are they allowed to use the internet or even watch TV?

I was called for jury duty and when I got on the Internet to get directions to the courthouse, information about an upcoming murder trial popped up. I didn't read it but just having seen the article title online was enough to drop me from the jury on the first round.

I don't think that they can have any outside information but a lawyer's wife may be aware of manslaughter sentencing but not necessarily. My guess is that she has been voted as foreman. My hope is that she won't go along to get along with a couple of others who may be unconvinced beyond a shadow of a doubt but living in fear of retribution.
