Anyone who gets selected is going to be stir crazy for up to 6 months but once they get out, play your cards right and you've got media interviews, book deals, etc etc. Provided none of the jurors are business owners they will make their lost wages up in the first few weeks before the dust even settles.
I actually know one of the witnesses, so even if I didn't have business obligations I could never do it. But yeah, hypothetically if it was 10 years ago I'd be all over it.

And once the court questions you and finds that you want to be on the jury so you
can get book deals and interviews they will exclude you and send you home.
You are the exact person that they don't want.
I mean, will your book deal be better if there is a conviction, or will it be better
for an acquittal?
Maybe you would just play your cards for the best deal and fuck justice.
