JUROR REFLECTION

JUROR PARAGRAPH.
By: Vanessa Reyes


Some of my strengths in this project were that the book was easy to read. I think that if you know how to read and get the story/ book/ novel then you can do anything with that information. But some of my weaknesses were trying to get my bias opinion and become a juror that has no prejudice feeling. At first with the 1st round of the jury selection, I thought that it was fine to have the boys alone on the island as long as they had a good structure and good leaders. The defense attorney thought that was a bias opinion and they kicked me off the jury. But the 2nd time I tried out for the jury I was a nurse and had didn’t have any problems with my biasness. We as the jury [all 12 of us] had the same opinion, Jack Merridew is NOT guilty. The prosecuting attorney didn’t use their evidence and there was no real evidence showing that Jack killed Simon and Piggy. We decided that Jack wouldn’t be sentenced with Manslaughter. I think if I had chosen to go the opposite route and have gone against them we would have a hung jury. But I went with my gut and Jack is now free. I think on this project I deserve an A. I deserve this grade because I had fun, I gave in my all to everything I did.
