BlueK is on a distinguished road
Default Jury service

I've been picked to be part of my county's grand jury for the next six months. That means starting yesterday, for one day a week until the end of June I'm going to be at the courthouse for most of the business day helping to decide if there is enough evidence to send felony cases to trial. It was interesting seeing how the process works. Mostly drug cases and burglaries. At least on our first day almost all of them met the standard to push them to the next step. But I did feel good about how we were able to end the legal nightmare for someone who was clearly falsely accused.
