Sometime ago I ran across a study showing that criminal defense attorneys seek to obtain juries averaging tenth grade educations and low normal IQ's. I have been called to jury duty in New Mexico where by statute not only lawyers but judges can serve on juries and have some pretty funny stories about being voir dired there.
