Brad Pitt was Dismissed From Jury Duty for Being Brad Pitt

Date:

Brad Pitt was dismissed from Jury Duty for being the famous Brad Pitt.

Would you convict someone of a crime you believe they did not commit simply because Brad Pitt wanted them to go to the electric chair? Your answer is probably going to be yes and that is why Brad Pitt cannot serve on a jury.

The Daily Mail reports that Brad Pitt was getting ready to serve as a juror in Los Angeles, when his civic duty was removed from him.

“You just can’t stick Brad Pitt in a jury box and expect 11 jurors to ignore him. It’s only natural that those jurors would be watching to see how Brad reacts to what’s being said and that they could be influenced by his opinions once the jury goes behind closed doors to render a verdict.”

From Us Weekly:

Lively adds to Us Weekly that “too much attention” on one juror could “interfere with the objective examination of the allegations” in the case. “It’s one of those things where [it’s like], ‘We’re not going to use you because it’s going to end up being about you,'” he says.
