By professional we mean some who has been educated in the law and the issues surrounding certain kinds of evidence/alleged science. Your doctor comes from the same pool we get jurors from.I'm not sure I'd trust "professional jurors" any more than the juries we have now, if those professionals are coming from the same general pool of people. Perhaps a system wherein the "professional jurors" are actually sitting judges. For example, one judge is assigned to case as the actual judge (same as now) , while three other judges from the district/group/area/whatever serve as the jurors.NCCommish said:I like the idea of professional jurors but I'm not sure about the reality.Walking Boot said:After getting through Serial and The Staircase, I'm fully on board with completely renovating the jury system. We need people who know logic, understand the law, and I say we should let them ask questions too. I see no reason not to have some kind of professional juries system.
