[QUOTE="FJohnny, post: 16041777, member: 191643"] It would sure save time explaining the finer points of law to a professional juror. And they would be less likely to be swayed by a clever prosecutor or defense lawyer or the outward appearance of witnesses and defendants. All that sounds pretty good. But is a professional juror more susceptible to tampering? Bribery? Repeated shading of decisions because of bias or prejudice? If we are going to have professional jurors maybe first we should insist on judges that also act professionally. And you may not get very far with that. (And no, I was not in any way referring to Kavanaugh. That ship has sailed.) I have golfed with quite a few judges and found them to be a strange lot indeed. There may be no correct answer to this question. But I vote yes. All the best. [/QUOTE]
