I was summoned last year. Didn’t get selected for the jury but did still spend two days listening to the selection process and info on the case.
It was a sad one, DUI. Mother was driving and went head on into another car, her own 4-5y.o. daughter died in the accident.
Her and her boyfriend looked like trouble, exactly what you’d picture when you think of a couple driving under the influence and getting their own daughter killed out of their negligence and stupidity… Sad that they were able to have kids in the first place, some people should be fucking sterilized. I heard a few months back that she got some bullshit slap on the wrist sentence - she was sure to get pregnant before sentencing, figuring that factored into a lighter sentence. I know she’s probably already suffered plenty knowing what she did, but I have a hard time feeling sympathy for someone who does something as gross as what she chose to do and feel she deserved a decade or more, not a year or two.
There’s people serving more time for possession of weed in this country than others who are responsible for the death of someone.
