Subject: RE: BS: Jurors' duty to be ignorant
The problem now is that the press have not only reported the issue, but also what she looked up. So it would be difficult for any future juror to be 'ignorant' of this.

Unless jurers are prevented from reading any press from the date of arrest to the conclusion of the trial, then they cannot be immunised from access deliberate or passive access to information.
