In the public imagery, jury trials are very emblematic to people of what the law is.

Robert Richardson

Joe Escobedo
It's very comforting to a jury that there's a corroborative document that was created at the time the crime was committed that fits the testimony. It makes the defense case more difficult.
Stephen Ryan
It wasn't from the courthouse. It wasn't from us. Someone is trying to gain information illicitly. We would not call anyone on the phone for not showing up for jury service.

As I read the indictment, ... I really wonder whether this is not the time for the government to simplify the burden on the jury by abandoning some of these counts.
Leonard Sand

John Barnett
We have a classic confrontation between the freedom of the press and the right of the government to investigate criminal activity before a grand jury.

George Kendall
This is another effort by the prosecution to keep out evidence the jury ought to hear.
Jeff Justice
If you bring a straight accounting case to a jury, where it comes down to a battle of the experts, the government has a high risk of losing that case.
