Huh?
Comment on When a judge tells the jury to ‘forget XYZ,’ how can the jury possibly do that?

If it was a jury of my peers no one would remember much on the first place.

For real, even short jury trials are typically a couple of days long, and there will typically be tens, if not hundreds, of things objected to during the course of the trial.
You would have to have a very good memory to remember a specific objection out of the pile.

This is precisely why I detest being a juror. There’s always one juror questioning my memory. Consequently, I follow by repeating the last five minutes of the conversation to prove it. Subsequently, someone acts like it’s a gift, but it’s akin to living in my own personal hell. Having to recall almost everything for decades. It’s almost impossible to ever let things go.

I work in the legal field right now. I’ve sat in and participated in approximately 50 trials in the last five years.
