From Michael Nance, the juror in the McDougal trial who brought a law textbook into the deliberations.

“I didn't have a clue as to how to use that [textbook]. It was just too technical."

“We was yelling and screaming, trying to figure out the law. It just got intense.”

“My religious beliefs are just the way they are stated in the Bible. That is that thou shall not judge one another, and if you believe in Jesus, you have to hold to that. The flip side of that coin is that you must also go by man's law.”
(note: this is his basis for trying not to serve on the jury. The Bible, in his opinion, forbids his judging another in a court of law. So much for Christian judges.)

“I'm just Jesus.”

“I think justice would have been done if Ms. McDougal was acquitted on all charges. I think her state of mind was that she was nervous and scared, and that no matter what way she went, she would be guilty. And she just clammed up.”

“I have a million in one things to do at the house. I've got to finish painting the fences, and planting grass and removing shrubs and rebuilding my pickup truck.”


You also must attempt procuring a new brain, Mr. Nance. Mercy. If anyone has legal business in Arkansas, they are surely doomed. Dem peoples down dere is jez plain dum.
