I think that's a great idea. It could be a short, scaled survey ranking things from 1 to 5—you know, “applies to me”, “doesn't apply to me”—and a series of yes-or-no questions. I think it would be valuable for two reasons. One is that we could learn about this individual juror, but then we could also start getting some national data on this problem and how widespread it is. Is it more prevalent in certain types of trials or in certain jurisdictions where you want to focus your resources? I think that's a fantastic idea.
It would be voluntary. The jurors wouldn't have to do it, but I think it could be part of the post-trial debriefing with the judge, when they just say, “If you're interested, we're collecting some data. Complete this survey.” I think that's a great idea.
