16 minutes walking through The Hood, both ways.....to put it bluntly, I am not going to be on foot on that route dressed for jury duty
especially after leaving the courthouse. We were instructed to never wear our jury badges outside the courthouse as well - every day, several times a day. Actual jurors are driven to their cars in an NOPD police van (one block away) at the end of the day.
