So I still plan to write a bunch about the trial
I served as a juror on soon
(still recovering from the week long trip to LA)
but had a question about it that I wanted y'all to answer.
In the capital murder trial we found the defendant guilty.
He now has a new lawyer who is trying to determine grounds for an appeal
since his client was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole.
This new lawyer has been aggressively contacting
the jurors from our trial-
calling them at home, calling their parents to try
and get their phone numbers,
even showing up at their houses to talk to them at night.
He asks them questions about the trial such as.....
did you know any of the witnesses prior to the trial,
did you talk about the trial over the weekend you were sequestered, etc.
He hasn't yet showed up at my house but I've been thinking
a lot about how I will react.
On the one hand, he is working hard for his client and I respect that.
On the other, it seems a bit aggressive.
What do you think? Would you talk to him if it were you?
Do you think he's doing his job or is out of line?
