I love New York juries. The fact that they're in there yelling tells you they took their responsibility seriously. I'm proud of that.

You know what, except in the extraordinary circumstances, jury selection typically takes a day, ... So when you talk about depriving somebody of their liberty, what's a day? If they are looking at five years, 10 years, 99 years in prison, what's a day in the big scheme of things?

Talking about science in the courtroom used to be like talking about geometry ? a real jury turnoff. Now that there's this almost obsession with the [TV] shows, you can talk to jurors about [scientific evidence] and just see from the looks on their faces that they find it fascinating.

We've got to get our jury [picked] sooner or later.

This is one of those cases where people have very strong opinions either way.

The peremptory strike is the great equalizer.
