RE: Review of Voir Dire



Neal, 

Do you want to add any questions about character evidence/good military
character?

I use this question often - sometimes it gets nothing, but sometimes I get
some really interesting responses:

While you all believe you can be fair, is there anything about you that if a
third person looking in knew about you or your circumstances might raise in
their mind a question about the fairness of this trial?

I also like:

Who walked in this courtroom today, looked at my client and thought to
yourself "I wonder what he did?"

Although you each understand that 1stLt Burke has the absolute right to
remain silent does anyone believe he should take the stand to prove his
innocence?  Or

Although you each understand that 1stLt Burke has the absolute right to
remain silent, if he does not take the stand, would anyone view his silence
as a sign of guilt?

Ranae,
Can you review my proposed voir dire (with particular emphasis on the last
page - case specific), and add any areas you think might be fruitful?
