when I told him that the defendant's attorney was my ex-wife's attorney and I didn't know if I could remain impartial. I also explained how the prosecutor's case looked ridiculous and that I was torn in my judgement. He looked at me as if I was a Martian and then the defense atty. threw in how he thought I was an extremely honest man. "Sir, you're excused", said he.
