My wife Heather has posted a funny and extensive story about her many jury duty experiences over the past few years over at her blog.
I’ve never had to go to jury duty, but I was subpoenaed to appear as a special witness a few years ago because I had worked with the local police to draw a sketch of an armed robber.
They caught the guy. When I saw him in court, it was interesting to see that I had captured his eyes and chin based on the victim’s description.
However, it was about as bad as most police sketches, and it showed that my primary training was as a cartoonist and caricaturist and not a portrait artist.
I don’t know what gave it away really, but I think it might have been the giant head on the tiny body in the little car.
You never can tell.
