Last time I was on jury duty I was dismissed because I wouldn’t consider probation. Defendant was a non- English speaking Immigrant, legal status never brought up. Accused of statutory rape with a girl younger than 13yo. First question I was asked if I could consider probation, I said absolutely if defense could show extenuating circumstances, girl lied about age, ect. Second question I was asked was if it was his second time could I consider probation, I said absolutely not, if found guilty the only sentence I would consider would be max sentence. Had to go back to talk to the Judge, tried to convince me to consider probation or a lighter sentence. Your Honor, I could not in good Conscience consider anything other than the maximum sentence. Mr. Vpost you are dismissed.
