Zzzzzzzz: Two jurors have been kicked off the Roger Clemens trial for falling asleep | Big League Stew - Yahoo! Sports
From the Associated Press:
Before Brian McNamee returned to the stand Tuesday morning, U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton dismissed a second juror for sleeping through part of the proceedings. The juror, a woman who works as a supermarket cashier, said during jury selection she had never heard of Clemens, and that, ''If he did indulge, I believe he should be penalized.''
Her departure leaves 14 jurors, including two alternates. The case started with 16 jurors, including four alternates. A young man was dismissed from the jury last week for falling asleep.
