Pinellas? You be the Judge
Excerpt:
On Saturday's online edition of the St. Petersburg Times, it was announced that "Casey Anthony jury selection could be coming to Pinellas on Monday". I found out about it from one of the local journalists because my hunch that it would be from either Hillsborough or Pinellas was right on the mark. That's what I had been saying for months after carefully studying numerous counties. I never had a thought about Miami because of several things. The population of Miami-Dade County is roughly 2,500,000 people. Orange County is around 1,150,000. That's less than half. Also, the demographics aren't the same if we break down ethnicities and incomes into percentages, not to mention crime. Most importantly, all statistics aside, when Jose Baez made his preference known, it was a sure sign that the judge was going to go to any other county but that one. Baez might as well have said, "Any other county but Pinellas!" and, voila, we would have gotten us a jury location a lot quicker, not that the judge wasn't following a schedule or anything.
