Prying into the Trial
The media wants access to the jury questioners filled out in the Bonds perjury case. I've never heard of the press getting those before. Does someone know if that's a usual request in big cases? If I were a potential juror, I'd decline to fill it out for fear my name would be linked to the trial, and something I wrote was misconstrued.

Interesting link regarding jury questionnaires - from the Michael Jackson trial
http://jurylaw.typepad.com/Michael_Jackson_questionnaire.pdf
The WTC trial of Mossaoui had a 50 page sheet to complete. Jurors have to answer extremely personal questions - and swear under threat of perjury that they are truthful.
Do you think these people trying to do a civic duty want reporters digging through their grabage and acting as de facto policeman trying to get them hauled away for perjury? The press as prosecutor didn't work in the Duke lacrosse case (thanks. Ms. selena Roberts and the NYT!) and should never be allowed.
Any misinterpretation of a fact may cause them to have to hire a lawyer and defend themsevles from prosecution for the same crime Bonds is accused of committing.

If I had to fill out a questionnaire, knowing that the media might get ahold of it, I would just tell the judge that I couldn't be impartial. This is bullst!t and I hope the judge doesn't let it out (though the 9th Circuit, as wacky as it is, could overrule the judge & I doubt the S.Ct. would hear an appeal.)
