Paul MossAhhhhhhhh, it's quite different this time. We're dealing with Nevada, not la la la chi chi California.
Despite being known as Sin City, Las Vegas, more specifically Clark County, once one steps away from the glitzy strip and touristy areas, one finds oneself in one giant retirement community. I mean old folks in gigantic wholesale quantities. This is your Clark County jury pool. As a whole, they border socially and politically somewhat a tad to the right of Louis XIV, couple this with an aggressive state judicial system in a state where possession of a half smoked joint or even a seed is a felony and you have a recipe for OJ's demise. My folks lived there in their "golden years" and would LOVE to be called for jury duty. It gave them something different to do and becoming empanelled on a long case was cause for celebration. For my late dad, it was suit and tie time, fresh notebooks for copious entries, and he always carried a couple of back up pens. He was no different to the rest of the old folks who'd received a jury summons. OJ is toast and would be well advized to a plea deal.
