I have a small mailbox. Upright, not the Quonset hut version that one sees by the street. Mine's upright and on the side of the railing by my front steps. I've no idea how long this small post card languished in my mail box, but I have been threatened by the Director of Juror Services Division, Darell Mahood, to call or be subject to a $1,500.00 fine! Who is this guy and why is he threatening me? I've tried to serve on juries in the past and they did their best to make me feel like a criminal.
It's a shame that this system makes it difficult for anyone to get a 'fair trial' because the jurors mostly don't want to be there. They are treated like dirt. If we had a pool of schooled professionals that made even minimum wage, choosing a jury would be a much more pleasant experience and might be very helpful to the entire system.
Meanwhile, I'll have fodder to expose the system from within!
