Can we just speak frankly for a minute here?
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE JURORS?  They have only been in the deliberation process since yesterday, at 1pm.  And they stopped at 8:30pm by screaming, "SHUT IT DOWN."  Now they're crying in the courtroom in front of everyone, doing things to get themselves thrown off, etc?  When they were voir-dired for this thing, they knew this trial might run for at least 2 weeks.  So far they've been seated approx 4 days.  AND they had the weekend off.  Why are they acting like passengers who have been left on a plane on the tarmac for 203 hrs? As far as I know, they're getting all their meals paid for, they are allowed to take smoke breaks and restroom breaks, were given a bed to sleep in...where's the fire here?   One time I was at work for 34hrs straight.  Truth.  And I am of weak constitution.  If these jurors can't work for 8 hours straight...well, I'm just not sure what to say.
