The El Chapo trial now has a jury.
Today, five men and seven women were empaneled for the trial. And some were not so happy. One female juror left the courtroom bawling after Judge Cogan informed the jurors they had been chosen.
A few minutes after the announcement, Cogan said “we have one open rebellion.” Apparently, the woman, who works for a media company, said her co-workers had figured out she was one of the potential jurors, which was upsetting to her.
Judge Cogan did not allow her off serving. He could find no grounds to excuse her.
One female juror actually claims to have never heard of El Chapo, another had no clue what “cartel” was. The woman was the sole person not familiar with El Chapo. The others including the 6 alternates said they had heard of him through the news or television programming.
Then there was an enthusiastic Trump supporter who was asked by Lichtman if he thought El Chapo was a “bad hombre”. He answered he didn’t know as he didn’t know him. He made it to the last round before being axed.
The jury is an interesting mix. On the questions of legalization of marijuana they all articulated liberal views, saying they believe in legalization.
Two of the jurors speak Spanish. A few have relatives in law enforcement, and three are immigrants.
1000 questionnaires were sent out to prospective jurors. Of those only 100 were told to report for voir dire this past Monday. Among the characters in the jury pool were a Michael Jackson impersonator, and a Medellin Colombia native who ask a security officer for help getting an autograph from El Chapo.
