I saw a few try that. The judge said fine, we have a business trail on the docket that they are calling in the jury pool right now down the hall. Please proceed to court # xx.

I just tell the judge and attorneys that if police or experts are going to testify, the trial is biased. That's because officers and experts testify way more than John Q. Public, therefore, and because they are paid witnesses, testimony is not balanced.

May not be a shred of truth in that, but it's what I believe.

Oh, and there's the bit about a Fully Informed Jury.
