Pretty easy to get out of, right? I'm sure no prosecutor would keep you if you stated plainly that you detest cops and would never trust a word that comes out of their snouts. I've also heard of people claiming to have biases against all races but their own just to get out of jury duty, although at least once, I've heard of a judge asking jurists who made such claims for proof of past statements along those lines or be slapped with contempt of court charges. Not sure proclaiming to be a racist is the direction I would go in, but to each their own, I suppose.
Nah, you keep all that secret, manage to get on the jury anyway, then vote not guilty no matter what.
Unless it's a civil case. Then you just automatically rule in favor of whichever party has less money.
Of course, always go for jury nullification (or be the lone dissenting vote if your state requires a unanimous jury) if you can, but this is for when you aren't able to put in the time for whatever reason
I'm of the mind that if you're being criminally tried, your likely guilty. Not always, obviously, but that's enough to say to get me off any jury.
