That is the way I took the note to mean. I have served as a jury foreman on everything from a murder trial to first degree assault to civil trials. You never know what you are going to get in deliberations. I have sat on juries with: businessmen, husbands, housewives, retired men and women, working and unemployed single moms and dads, college students, college educated, school dropouts and ner-do-wells barely staying out of jail themselves. You just never know what you are going to encounter in deliberations.
My mother was called for jury duty once and she said that at first she wasn’t sure if she was in the jury pool room or the holding area for the defendents.
