Re: Murder conviction

Absolutely not before or during the trial. If that has happened, then this should be reported to both the prosecutor and the defense lawyer(s) IMMEDIATELY. Good Luck!

Re: Murder conviction

Not before they reach a verdict. After they are discharged from the case they are just like everybody else.

Re: Murder conviction

Not while trial is going on or before. They are forbidden from discussing the case with anyone connected to it, including other jurors.
