A juror phoned in to the High Court to say she was too drunk to turn up for duty.

Nicola Glen, 35, called the court last Thursday to say she had been out drinking until 4am and was too drunk to go in.

She had spent the previous nine days sitting on a jury considering evidence against 18-year-old Grant Farquhar. She missed the closing speeches when she called in drunk.

Her actions could have potentially jeopardised the trial and judge Michael O'Grady QC ordered Ms Glen to appear in court on Friday.

Uhhh - never mind. Words Fail Me

Maybe this trial would have been similar to Trayvon's if he was still around.
