Comment on A ‘glitch’ left young people off jury rollsparent

Comments

The defendants who were previously found guilty under the old jury selection can ask for a second trial under this new jury. Any the young people who were deprived of jury duty also get a chance.

A jury that is 10x more likely to have youth? Not necessarily any more just. That's not right either. Couldn't we just strive for a just jury?

There is nothing yet that says anyone convicted has a right to a new trial based on this information, the supreme court granted a stay until the case, and the effect of this error can determined.
