I sat on a jury once.  The way the judge explained to us how we should decide which evidence to consider or not consider, especially with regards to evidence that is &#x27;clear and convincing&#x27; was extremely convoluted.  And this is from someone who works in very convoluted systems, has read significant amounts of law, worked with lawyers, and who has taken classes in law.  I can only imagine how other jurors who haven&#x27;t had any significant experience with legal matters felt.
