The "jury pool from hell"

From CNN.com:

Sometimes you just have shake your head and go "huh?".

Defense attorney Leslie Ballin called it the "jury pool from hell."

The group of prospective jurors was summoned to listen to a case of Tennessee trailer park violence.

Right after jury selection began last week, one man got up and left, announcing, "I'm on morphine and I'm higher than a kite."

Another choice quote comes from the prospective jurors who admitted a prior arrest for soliciting an undercover officer for prostitution: "I should have known something was up...She had all her teeth."
