My one and only time I got to go in a group to be questioned about being on a jury in a particular trial ... it was actually quite humorous .... I never made it up to being questioned, but in the first 20 or so that did .... 3/4 of them had a graduate level education ... 2 doctors, 2 lawyers (one of which was a prosecuting attorney for LA County), 2 engineers, 1 retired priest, 2 previous police officers and those who didn't have a higher than Bachelor's degree education had successful businesses of their own. We broke for lunch ... came back, sat around with the court room closed for another hour and the judge came out to thank us for being willing to serve and told us to report back to the jury room for further instruction .... he then said something we all had to smile about "I think you scared the crap out of the defendant and his attorneys" Orange Co. California is really a rather unique place to live .... during that hour wait by the courtroom door, I discovered that those 20 were a fair representation of the entire group that was waiting to possibly serve on that jury .... every single one of us had at least a couple of years of college education, all were in the working world, several had rather successful businesses or their business was as a professional (engineer, doctor, lawyer, etc.) ... I don't think there are many places where you would have that kind of group to select from for a jury.
