Welcome to Light On Light Through, Episode 128, in which I tell you what happened more than seven years ago, when I served as foreperson on a jury in Westchester County, NY, where an African-American male was charged with the felony of assaulting a police officer. I published a blog post about this right after the trial was over back then, but didn't get a chance to provide the account in a podcast. I thought, given the murder of George Floyd and the continuing protests about police mistreatment of African-Americans, the time was long since overdue.
