My mind is kind of boggling at that jury make-up! But I guess I get why it would happen that way?
Being a kid from a law enforcement family (my father retired as a state police officer) is pretty much a get-out-of-voir-dire-free card. And now that my brother's in that field (not to mention a whole host of other relatives) I don't think I'll ever sit on a jury. I'd like to. As it stands, I invariably get called up when I vote somewhere new, and it's always a waste of everyone's time.
