I was on a jury once....pedophile case. He was 18 and we had to decide to let him out of prison or institutionalize him since it was proven that he could NOT be cured. One juror was sympathetic to the pedophile since he was "so young" . I asked the juror (male) if HE had young grandsons....yes he did. I REMINDED him that the pedophile had a sleazy girlfriend with THREE boys under the age of 12. There was "inventory" waiting for him if released.....it was unanimous to institutionalize the pedophile. I was the only one to step up in defense of the kids. Good grief!
