Letter: Will justice and fair play come to Gloucester?

Posted on Jul 01, 2010 - 09:58 AM Printer Friendly View

Editor, Gazette-Journal:

What’s all the fuss about jury duty no-shows? (June 17 article "Jury duty no-shows cause problems for court system"). Now Judge Long wants to hit jurors with a fine!

When judge, jury, prosecutor and clerk failed to show up for Mr. Clarence Bowser’s ‘jury trial,’ the biased press and Judge Long had nothing to say about that no-show.

Will justice and fair play ever come to Gloucester County?

J. C. Jones

Newport News, Va.
