There's a strong case to be made for having professional, full-time juries.
Not really. The court is chock full of professionals who are there to guide the process but also tainted by the institution (and have an institutionalised perception of the case). So many downsides to professional juries (opportunities for corruption, creates yet another class of people in the courts system who are distanced from normal life) while not at all removing the risk of there being morons and cunts in the jury.
I'm sure G4S would love to provide the service, though. Think about that.

Or a test to root out the dregs.
