Was on a murder trial in Orleans Parish last year. Weird thing is, I'm a lawyer. How I made that jury shocks me. So, of course, I was jury foreman. He got life.
We had a lawyer that handled civil cases on our jury.

I wouldn't want one on my jury
Some states have exemptions where lawyers can just pull themselves off a jury if they want.
One common rationale being the other jurors will be overly influenced by the lawyer on the jury, which I could definitely see happening.
