I served on a jury for a guy arrested for breaking and entering and grand theft. We found him guilty, based on tons of physical and circumstantial evidence, then as soon as we returned the verdict, we were in formed that this was a 3 strikes case, and that the man would be going to jail ofr 25 years to life.
It kind of took my breath away to know that I had sent a guy to jail for that long. I know my role wasn't to think about the consequences; it was to give an impartial review of the evidence, but still. damn.
