"I continued my personal life as if I was not there to judge a trial," is how Kimberly Davis explained herself to the New York Daily News. "It was my first time as a juror, and I was naive."
Davis was sitting on a robbery trial in Queens last year and posted Facebook updates with details about the trial, despite the judge's orders not to. "Everything about this process is inefficient," she wrote on September 17. "I'm trying to remain positive and centered, but, truthfully, I'm dying from boredom."
Once deliberations began, she kept posting, writing: "God help me. The other jurors don't trust the police and want to outright dismiss the confessions as well as the majority of the rest of the evidence. Tomorrow is going to be a very difficult day."
