I've only had to serve one time, about 8 yrs ago, got picked to sit a murder trial lasted 3 days,we the jury deliberated for close to two hrs convicted the guy 1st degree murder , is now in prison for life no possibility of parole, and to tell you the truth I could live with not having to do that again. I could not imagine what it would be like to be sequestered, that would be a bummer for sure!!!
