I hate jury duty! I was sequestered with a murder trial jury (I was an alternate), and that was the most horrible experience of my life. It was about 30 years ago in a small town. Local (very old) HI was the best accommodations we had. No TV, no newspapers, bailiffs had to check all our reading material, etc. And to top it all off, the murder had occurred about 1/2 mile from my home. A couple of years later, I was chosen for a child molestation trial. Another bad one, but not sequestered, at least. Last week, we had 2 murder trials on the docket, and I was terrified I would get called. It's enough to make you not want to vote or participate in your county, IMHO.

Good luck!
