Read “The Juror Rejudges the Trial”

In 1985, I shared interesting comments and witness descriptions on the CBS-Westmoreland trial after serving as a member of the jury. The product was the publication of her book, “‘The Juror and the General”. Now, decades later, I revisit the trial in this highly anticipated edition. In addition to covering the complexities of the legal battle, I also elaborate on the intricacies of life as a juror after the trial’s conclusion.

After sitting on that trial and pondering every little detail about witnesses, statements, and the complexities of legality, I was inspired to change her career and focus on her writing. Was I naïve at the time of the trial? It’s possible. But I’ve grown and changed – so much is different, but so much is exactly the same. A must-read for law students, Vietnam veterans, and anyone with experience serving in a jury, this is a story about how decisions are made and how intelligence is gathered. This is a story about history and how it repeats itself and the danger of the written word.

"Sometimes it's okay if all you did today was just breathe"

A lesson I must learn because my mind is filled with so much to do I forget to relax.

My grandson appeared to be putting together a rock collection. I thought he’d enjoy some of the items in my own collection for his 9th Birthday. His reaction upon receiving the gift was ….These are nice…Where’d you buy them? I was stunned that he hadn’t realized, I found each one of these items myself. I told him that I’d write the story about how I found each item in the collection. He’s now 22 and I haven’t finished the stories…
