”On Monday, conservative media personality Clay Travis sent the following tweet to his one million-plus Twitter (X) followers: 'If you’re a Trump supporter in New York City who is a part of the jury pool, do everything you can to get seated on the jury and then refuse to convict as a matter of principle, dooming the case via hung jury. It’s the most patriotic thing you could possibly do.'" Since prospective jurors are under oath at voir dire, Travis is urging perjury in federal court for the sake of "patriotism" and "principle." Seems to justify my post of 15th April, 12:06PM… ”It’s unusual though, Manitas - it’s certainly doesn’t seem to provide the same kind of jury-rigging opportunity as in the US from what I can gather.”
