The background of jurors in the 2005 trial.Jackson jury from diverse backgroundsJURY SELECTION February 24, 2005|From Miguel Marquez and Dree De Clamecy CNNA 12-person jury has been chosen for Michael Jackson's trial on child molestation charges.There are four men and eight women on the jury. The youngest is a 20-year-old man. The oldest is a woman, 79.There are no African-Americans on the panel -- drawn from the county where Jackson lives. About 2 percent of the population of the county is African-American.One Asian woman who lists Indonesian as her first language is on the jury. Questionnaires given to jurors did not ask about race.The jurors are:A 51-year-old woman who works as a computer programmer.A 22-year-old woman who is a physical therapy aide.A 62-year-old man who is a civil engineer.A 44-year-old woman who works in the Department of Social Services.A 63-year-old man who is retired.A 45-year-old woman who listed no job on her paperwork.A 79-year-old woman who is retired.A 21-year-old man who is a student.A 42-year-old woman who works as an education aide in special ed.A 50-year-old woman who is a horse trainer.A 39-year-old woman who is a clerk.A 20-year-old man who is an assistant head cashier.Most jurors told lawyers they enjoyed Jackson's music and were impressed by his career. Most also said they distrusted what they heard in the media, and very few had seen recent interviews with the pop star.One juror's ex-husband is a police officer. Another juror said her sister was raped when the sister was 12. When asked if that would prevent her from being on the jury, she responded, "Hell no."The 79-year-old juror is a great-grandmother whose grandson had to register as a sex offender. She told lawyers she feels the experience will help her be fair to Jackson.The youngest juror told the court his sister and her boyfriend had visited Jackson's sprawling Neverland estate.The horse trainer said she was surprised by Jackson's size. She described him as a small man with lots of energy.The 21-year-old student is a paraplegic, paralyzed in the lower half of his body, who said he wants to be a motor sports reporter. He said he visited Neverland with a United Cerebral Palsy group when he was in the sixth grade.QuoteWhat you have listed makes sense to me. It's short,simple and to the point on what background the public should know as far who the jurors are. It also makes sense to here about their family background to see if they are going to be able to make an unbiased opinion on the situation at hand. What doesn't make sense is that with the new one from TMZ we are getting a list of tv shows. I'm surprised they didn't mention their astrological signs, that's about the only thing we don't know about them.

One of them could be MJ in disguise, don't you think?

Really, it could be safely argued that falls are always rider error as it is the rider's choice to even be up there in the first place. The horse didn't chose for you to get on so if you fall off you only have yourself to blame.People who say "thrown" when they really mean "fall" or "came off"' are almost always generally irresponsible people and are the type who are always looking for someone (or something) else to blame for their indiscretions.
