Maybe it would have been helpful if the detective had told us what we could expect.
You and four other people on the jury stand with you go into a little room, and as soon as you come into the building every single day, you don't leave. The detective is with you the whole time. You're in a tiny little room with four other women, in my case. The washrooms are in the same room where you eat and read evidence. It's not normal. Nobody told me that in advance. The dynamic between the five of us women changed from the outset to the very end. I had no idea what I was getting into.
