Has more to do with Brazos County actually catching criminals and prosecuting crimes (relative to other places). Lot of other places let defendants plea their charges way down from felonies to misdemeanors. Saves tax dollars, but increases crime. Other places also don't actually investigate crime. Brazos County is tougher on crime and doesn't usually let people plea their charges way down. So more criminals are willing to risk a jury trial, and more jurors are needed. Brazos County is one of the worst places to commit crimes because it's relatively tough on crime. Price to pay for the increased safety is more jury summons for residents.Loaded said:
Does Brazos county (unnecessarily) call for jury pools more often than other counties? Honest question... just wondering why some folks, including myself, get a jury summons so frequently.
