Juror Got Herself In Trouble Over Facebook Post

September 1, 2010

Time and again, Facebook users seem to overexpress themselves, and the result weren’t too good.

The latest victim of Facebook post to make the news is a Michigan juror who was removed from a trial after posting verdict on Facebook before the case concluded.

Hadley Jons, 20-year-old,  juror in a case of resisting arrest reportedly wrote on her Facebook post, “actually excited for jury duty tomorrow. it’s gonna be fun to tell the defendant they’re GUILTY. icon razz Juror Got Herself In Trouble Over Facebook Post .”

Fortunately or unfortunately, son of defense attorney Saleema Sheikh discovered the post.

Jons was promptly replaced with a alternative. She could be charged with contempt of court, and the decision for which is due Thursday, Sept. 2.

Last week, an excited Swedish schoolgirl posted how she and her friend were going to bug their teachers on Facebook and got themselves charged.

What a totally stupid thing to do! She should have known that to put that comment on Facebook, which EVERYONE reads, was asking for trouble!
