    That would be a bold choice, and I don’t think it would work out well overall. In terms of the public response. And imagine the security, it would be locked down harder than any place in the world.

    Although in all seriousness, in a normal setting they might be challenged if they chose an all-CEO jury. You can’t fill a jury with the potential target victims of the crime that is being accused. It would not be seen as fair by any stretch of the imagination.

    If someone was a accused of targeting very tall men with pink hair, you couldn’t fill the jury with people matching that description. Any sane person in the legal business would call them crazy.
