Trying to figure out is that part of the Judges chair.Bleeb is hanging onto,or something he’s going drop on the juror head.

Odd that Dave us on the witness stand.

And what is Bleeb standing next to?

AND, is the judge shocked at crazy Dave, or the strange alien?

So many questions…..

I’ll try that next time I get a summons for jury duty!!

Now that I’ve seen it I can’t unsee it. Now I wonder how long it has been hiding there.

I had a summons for Jury Duty last month, but the case was settled and I didn’t have to go in

I didn’t plan on bringing any odd props with me, I figured I am strange enough all on my own

The jury would be hung too just like the necklace if they picked him!

Last time I got called for jury duty I made it as far as the interview with the lawyers. The prosecutor wanted me on the jury because I had answered the question about how I felt about the police by explaining that my best mans father was a police Sargent, my next door neighbor was a detective and that we had about 6-8 police living in the neighborhood. Needless to say the defense attorneys used one of their strikes and I went home.

I was called for jury duty. When I got to the court room for the ‘interview’ they asked people ‘why do you think you would be a good juror?’. Like it was a job interview. They didn’t get to me, and that’s probably for the best because I could not think of a single reason why I would be a ‘good juror’.

I live in Florida and the last time I was called to serve on a jury I sent back the notification indicating I worked for the penal system, expecting to be excused. Well, I wasn’t. So I reported as summoned and when the question of, “How do you feel about the death penalty” was asked, I responded, “It’s a biblically sound punishment, but I’m not worried about his body, rather his soul.” I saw the judge, prosecutor, the defense attorney and the accused make a big mark on the paper, assuming it was next to my juror number. I wasn’t picked.

Do something like that in my county, and get a contempt charge (a night in the pokey!), and then the next day you get to publicly apologize (or spend another night in the pokey!).

I wrote in the questionnaire: I would look at the defendant as guilty to proven innocent All lawyers is a scum Everyone liesNeedless to say they didn’t call me

Can’t argue with success!

“Wait a minute! Weren’t you in here last week dressed as a Storm Trooper? Your Honor, I select this man!” (HA! Who’s the squirrel now!?”)

Rule #1 Don’t wear a tie or you’ll be chosen as foreman of the jury.

the necklace really creeped the bug out that is on the back of the judge’s chair.

Wonder if Mr. Vork believes in the death penalty

He was relieved of jury duty and became the defendant.

Just answer the questions honestly and get sent home.

Was the defendant a squirrel?

My shrunken human head necklace has kept me off juries for more than 30 years.
