To what extent does random selection of jury members create bias and would jury selection provide a solution?

Have a little read: ... To what extent does random selection of jury members create bias and would jury selection provide a solution? The theory behind the UK system of random selection is based on many assumptions. Firstly that randomness produces a representative sample of the population, which will provide verdicts, representative of the general public. It is assumed that if one juror has an apparent prejudice, then those in other jurors will counter it and so bias does not occur in this system1. Another assumption is that having "12 good men and true"2 randomly selected into the jury "strengthens the legitimacy of the legal system."3 However, it is clear that randomness does not provide representativeness and not all jurors are good and true. By implication a random sample can be all white, all black, all Asian, all young, all Liberals or all members of the BNP4 and so not representative of the population. Penny Darbyshire
