Lying DUmmie "TwixVoy" perjures itself to get out of jury duty

Is it just me or would the DUmmies be waving torches and pitchforks if a Conservative posted something so stupid on a public forum?  :thatsright:

I feel guilty for falsely getting out of jury duty...
 Edited on Sun Aug-16-09 06:10 AM by TwixVoy
I was scheduled for jury duty this coming week. I was planning on going, however tonight I claimed exemption on the jury duty web site by saying I was the primary care taker of a person who was not able to take care of them self. The law here requires that you be the primary care taker.

Technically I am not the primary care taker. (I am the secondary I guess you could say) It is an immediate family member we are taking care of in my house who has stage 4 breast cancer. Today we had to unexpectedly take her to the emergency room for a ruptured appendix. We thought she had eaten something bad for over a day and didn't know what was wrong until we got to the hospital. They had to do surgery.

So now she is still in the hospital and we still do not know what her condition will be the next few days or what we will need to do.

Technically because there is another family member in my house also taking care of her I could have made it to jury duty, however I feel like with not knowing what will happen the next few days it would be too risky. Still I lied on a government form which I have never done before. Should I feel guilty about doing that? I was honestly planning on going it's just that this situation came out of no where and it is occupying too much of my thoughts right now. That is why I am up so late right now.

TwixVoy lied to The Courts and admits it ?

IIRC thats a fine and/or 30 days in jail.

Whats ridiculous is that the odds are he wouldn't have served at all, or if he did it would be for the afternoon. Most of the time its small crimes - DUI, Drug possession etc. and the accused pleas out.

WHAT?  Not only did it lie to get out of jury duty but it knows someone who has long term care with a *gasp* hospital AND had to go to an emergency room AND we got no bouncy out of it?

Why is it that when I read that I got the image that TwitVoy is a young adult living with at home with the parents?

There is such a thing as duty in this world.  Pay taxes, do Jury duty, serve in defence of ones country and honor God----What ever you call him/her.

It is an honor to serve on a jury, shows the comunity thinks well enough of you to place you in a seat of judgement.

 Support the family that has sacrificed for you for 20-30+ YEARS AND RESPECT THE OFFICE OTHERS HOLD---MAY NOT RESPECT THE OFFICE HOLDER BUT THE POSISION DESERVES RESPECT.

I would like to whack that poster with my Sheilah Stick.

Man, I can't tell you how nice it is for all posts by vestanumbers
to read "This user is currently ignored"!!

DUmmy TwixVoy is a fired Target clerk, who previously told us he/she had landed
a gig as a trainee cable guy with AT&T. Job was to start immediately, after a few
formalities, like a drug test. Now DUmmy TwixVoy is saying the job won't kick in
until sometime next month. Sounds like a failed drug test.

Most decent and civilized people who are called for jury duty show up as
required, but are never chosen to sit on a jury. Defense lawyers do not
want to trust the fate of their criminal clients to decent and civilized people.
They much prefer juries made up of the peers of their criminal clients. So,
for decent and civilized people, jury duty usually just means showing up
a few days, and sitting around for a couple of hours until enough riffraff have
been chosen for the day's juries. Then decent and civilized people go home.
DUmmy TwixVoy would likely be chosen for every jury possible, because he/she is
a defense lawyer's dream. It's understandable why DUmmy TwixVoy would pull
out all the stops to avoid jury duty.

I had to show up for the jury pool once.  Guess I wasn't weird enough to get picked.  The cases sure were gems... someone suing two lawyers and acting as his own counsel, another person suing a school because he was assaulted on their property.  I think there was a third, but I don't remember.  It was a collossal waste of three days sitting around doing nothing, but my company paid me my regular wages for those three days so it wasn't too bad.

Everyone gets called sooner or later, but I've only known a couple who ever had to sit on a jury.
Petit jury, of course. Anyone can be seated on a grand jury, even people who show up wearing a tie.

I have to admit--I was called once.  Forgot all about it (10+ years ago).  Yes, at that time, I didn't hold it in the esteem that I do now.  So, I didn't show.  But, the county sheriff didn't come looking for me, so I guess I was alright.  If I receive another one, you can bet your fourth point of contact that I'll be there.

In my defense; Out of the 3 times I served we returned 2 guilty verdicts and the third one plead out.  The last one was about a month ago.  I think I'm the one the prosecutor picks.  LOL
