Witchcraft not allowed in courts - 04-11-03

Quote:
A WOMAN was thrown off the jury in the Real IRA trial after repeatedly carrying out spiritual rituals during the hearing, it was revealed yesterday.

The middle-aged woman complained of feeling "vibrations" as she sat in the jury box at the Old Bailey. She refused to look at crucial documents and instead clutched a witchcraft book and meditated while the court was in session.
Her odd behaviour was noticed by fellow members of the jury, lawyers and the judge, Mr Justice Gibbs. Previously, the court made arrangements for the woman to meditate during intervals in the trial.
During proceedings she was unwilling to look at jury papers because she needed one hand to hold her book and the other touching the floor, the court heard. Alarm was raised by the remaining 11 jurors in the sixth week of the 10-week trial.
In a note to the judge, they complained the woman was not concentrating when witnesses gave evidence and refused to look at exhibits.
During legal discussion the judge told counsel: "I am convinced she is no longer fit to act as a juror.
"For religious or spiritual implications she finds it necessary to place her other hand on the floor which makes it difficult for her to look at the bundle.
"It has nothing whatsoever to do with the case. I suspect it is a matter connected with the juror's own personality."
Discharging her from duty, he said: "I've come to the conclusion she is not fit to serve as a juror."
An order preventing reporting the reasons why the woman was discharged from the jury was lifted at the conclusion of the case.

The guys on trial should claim to be into witchcraft and therefore need a new witch in the jury to make it a jury of their peers

*tilts head to one side* Why on Earth would she constantly need her hand on her Grimoire and the Floor?
Why I ask you would you want to feel so constanlty grounded? And Comforted by a Book? So much that you defy the reason you need them....

hmm well im not a witch i rather think of myself as an occultist. that is kinda strange tho there relly isnt ne reason to do that you could draw energy called ki (japanese) chi (chinese) but you could easly do that by standing or sitting with your feet on the floor maybe shes trying to gain pubicity?

heres sumthing interesting tho when ever sumone is in a trial and they ask you by oath to tell the truth (do u solemly swear to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help u 'god') if u ask "which god" they will withdraw testomony thing


Sibilant and macabre
Walpurgis sauntered in
Skies litten with five-pointed stars
The work of crafts surpassing sin
As She graced Her window ledge
- An orphaned gypsy nymph
This issue of the forest's bed
Skin flushed with sipped absinthe -
Her eyes revealed, as Brocken's peak
Tried once concealing Hell
A snow white line of divine freaks
In riot, where they fell...

Hilarious..... Good bloody grief. Along with Hollywood and bullshit like this witches really get the worst image portrayal ever.

maybe she really didn't want to be on jury duty... haven't any of you seen the commercial with the guy dressed as an executioner when being interviewed for jury duty?

Its your own faults for eating all those children.


Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relatively to other such matter; second, telling other people to do so.
