I think I am glad I live somewhere other than CA! I saw an article yesterday in the paper where the Robt. Blake prosecutor actually called the jury “stupid”. There is a way to thank citizens for serving. I hope there are repercussions for such unprofessional behavior.

What does he mean that jurors should be held accountable for their actions? Is that some kind of a threat?
