Jury Duty

I've been selected for Jury Duty! Hooray!

Is there any way to know if I'll actually have to report besides calling the hotline number the night before?

I ask because I have quite the busy week at work next week, and it would be very beneficial to know if I'm going to need to report or not. (Those nuggets at McDonald's aren't going to fry themselves!!)

My online research has failed me.

Any help appreciated.

My first reaction was to google whether Missouri still had anti-homosexuality laws on the books.

But then I read the actual law:

Quote:
A person commits the offense of sodomy in the first degree if he or she has deviate sexual intercourse with another person who is incapacitated, incapable of consent, or lacks the capacity to consent, or by the use of forcible compulsion. Forcible compulsion includes the use of a substance administered without a victim’s knowledge or consent which renders the victim physically or mentally impaired so as to be incapable of making an informed consent to sexual intercourse.
So yeah. Have fun with your butt rape case.

(As an aside, you may end up getting yourself booted just for looking into it in advance. That may be your goal, but just be aware that they don't like people coming in with any information.)

Part of me thinks it would be a fun experience to be part of a jury.

A bigger part of me wants nothing to do with a sodomy case.

Sounds like they are selecting jurors with first hand experience.....

If you sing this song, you will likely be excused from jury duty:

I got chosen about 8 years ago out of over 200. We sat for 20 minutes listening to a judge explain what to expect. I acted quiet and disinterested they paired it down to 60 and I was one.
We took short break still not knowing what case was about. Then we went into the court chamber lawyers for accused and prosecution were there with culprit. They ask weird questions an randomly picked certain people to answer. I kept my head down and acted disinterested not saying a word. Low in behold I was selected. I thought holy shit. We took break by then. It was 3 pm. After 15 minutes we were escorted to jury box and seated then sworn in. This was gonna be settled that day. We watched evidence listened to both lawyers never once hearing from accused. It was a DWI 3rd offense if convicted he was serving time. About 7 pm case was sent to deliberation every one was tired we put put our votes on paper and into a tray. The jury Forman counted fry except 2 decanters. Back to deliberation and on 3 more times each time more decented. Finale vote he was found innocent because people wanted to go home I didn't want to be that one guy. I figured that guy would wind up killing someone behind the wheel.
On way out courthouse about 9 pm the prosecutor was out in hall talking her staff she was a babe. I just went up and asked why I was chosen. She was honest and said because I was quiet but attentive listening even if not participating. So be forwarned.

OP:

Were you selected? What happened? If you were selected and trial is still going on, I understand you can’t discuss it but I did wonder what happened.

Welp.... I'm on the jury. We had a group of about 40-50 yesterday morning. Out of that, they selected 21 to be in the jury box pool. They then told us to come back at 4:30. They did the same thing for the afternoon group. They then selected the 14 jurors (12 & 2 alternates) out of both groups. So, out of the jury box pool, I had a 1 in 3 chance. It is a criminal trial so at least I shouldn't be bored to death. But it also sounds like some of it will be tough to witness. I can't say anything about it until next week after this is over.
