The Catholic high school names had jumped right out at me but perhaps there was another common denominator??<br /><br />Barb ~ that would be a horrible situation for the victim and family of that crime to have his trial postponed. How tragic for the defense attorney. One of the questions we were asked, would you be able to keep an open mind if the prosecution did not prove without a reasonable doubt, would you find him not guilty. That's a tough one... would depend on the evidence.<br /><br />Sue ~ I just started teaching first grade religious ed at my church.

I wonder what the Catholic connection ...Hi Noreen,<br /><br />I wonder what the Catholic connection was.<br /><br />I've never been summoned for jury duty and I am guessing I would always have an excuse not to do it, as we are homeschoolers. I wonder about all that responsibility. Not something that can be taken lightly. If I were ever in court facing a judge and jury, I'd hope that those deciding my fate would be of good character and Christians, if not Catholics. So in a way, it is regretful they didn't choose you, as you could have helped someone in need. On the other hand, maybe you are relieved they rejected you!!<br /><br />Noreen, I didn't know you are a religious teacher. How could I have missed that?<br /><br />What a wonderful title for a post!<br /><br />God bless!Sue Elvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04461161335483760142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2975787531348798866.post-65113281739015312502011-09-13T22:17:37.978-05:002011-09-13T22:17:37.978-05:00I had an interesting experience this summer with j...I had an interesting experience this summer with jury duty--also a criminal case involving sexual assault of minors. My "number" never came up--but I was close to the end of the line of the 500 people called. 2 days after the jury was impaneled, one of the defense attorneys died in a fire, and they will have to start all over again this fall.<br />I cannot even imagine what all the people involved are going through!Barb Szyszkiewiczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00329184613713551475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2975787531348798866.post-88376401390865979242011-09-13T14:06:27.763-05:002011-09-13T14:06:27.763-05:00Interesting...wow, I wonder what the reason was......Interesting...wow, I wonder what the reason was...<br /><br />I've been called like 3 times, each time I've been nursing a baby and didn't have to go.Jamie Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678469484585027738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2975787531348798866.post-47398151429461344322011-09-13T13:06:55.643-05:002011-09-13T13:06:55.643-05:00hmm. not sure why you were excused.

I have never been selected for jury duty, but I have thought what I would do if selected- especially if I am breastfeeding and I can't leave my baby. <br /><br />Glad you got away from the duty, but you're right, you would have been one of the best canidates!Sarah Harkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02064673794877417232noreply@blogger.com
