In a bulletin to law enforcement agencies, the FBI said criminal impersonators are exploiting ICE’s image and urged nationwide coordination to distinguish real operations from fakes.
Honestly, the jury selection process is stupid. It depends on people to either live under a rock, or to lie about their character. Our jurors should be informed on the world and have opinions. Fairness achieved through witless conformity is justice by committee.
If we want better trials, getting rid of one-sided testimonials like the grand jury process, would be a much better way. It is weird how prosecutors get to put forward only their viewpoint, while the defense can’t. Randomly splitting the jury in half to listen to the defense and prosecution’s argument, then having each half hear the other side’s story, would be a better approach IMO. That removes the first-mover advantage to story telling. Also, a 20 minute snack and drink break for each session, to remove grouchiness as a factor.
Put me on a jury, and I will let people who crush ICE go free.
If so, you should never post about it online. That’s the kind of thing that jury selection software is meant to find

Our entire legal system doesn’t make sense, that’s not even in the top 5 gaping problems in the justice process
