Yes, I served on a jury three years ago.
It was a DUI case, in which the defense maintained that the defendent had not been under the influence of alcohol when he'd been pulled over, but suffered from a chronic medical condition that caused unsteady limbs and that's why he had failed the roadside sobriety tests.
We found him guilty after about four hours of deliberations.
It was a fascinating process, and I'd like the chance to serve again.
