I'm not talking about prosecution (unless worse stuff comes out in investigation)

But by deciding to put his views and statements in the
public, they are going to be commented on, and it does
indeed appear that he hasn't followed the law.

If he were a judge or a lawyer, then prosecution or some
kind of professional sanction might be appropriate, but IMO
jurors should be protected except in cases where it's clear
that they were specifically trying to corrupt or mislead.
People don't choose to be jurors.

A big ego and incompetence to the point of ignoring
instructions might mean a verdict is unsafe, but not
necessarily that a juror should be directly punished,
whereas a deliberate attempt to mislead the jury would be a
different matter.

Just my opinion.

Who's talking about prosecuting the jurors?

I have seen some commenting that Hogan should face some kind
of punishment for the misconduct/mistake/whatever you want
to call it.

As this thread was closely related to what I wanted to say I
posted it here.
