6 months jail for juror who looked up the defendant on the internet


Recommended Posts

Got it now!.....Who knows if she was encouraging others?...her argument was that the information she looked up was in the public domain anyway.

 

I'm not saying I agree with her notion, just that's what she said!

 

I didn't mean she was encouraging others but that her sentence may encourage other jurers to take their role more seriously...

Yes I see that now! I'm not convinced it will though. However, it will encourage them to keep their damn gobs shut!....:hihi:

Which was part of the problem, she told the other jurors what she'd found out, thus prejudicing all of them and not just herself.
