Is having friends on the police force an excuse to get out of jury duty?
No, not usually. Some people do try to get excused based on the people they say they know (the mayor, the governor, the chief of police), but such appeals to favoritism are rarely successful; however, if you are related to the person on trial, that would undoubtedly get you excused. Actually, when you show up to serve, there is no guarantee that you will be selected for a jury. Many citizens are called in, so that there is a large enough pool of potential jurors, but not all of them will be chosen for a trial. It is your civic duty to show up, and although it is understandable why you might not want to, it is important to be there. But don't be surprised if you are subsequently told you can go home.

How many jurors were dismissed during the course of o.j Simpsons double murder trial?
As far as I know eight jurors were dismissed for various reasons. The prosecution and the defense were a little nervous since the pool of alternates was being drained. If they run out of alternate jurors the whole process would have been done over starting with a new jury selection, which would have doubled the cost of the already multi-million dollar trial, and would have doubled the time of the trial which was 10 months.
