Easy Way Out Of Jury Duty

CLEVELAND - An Ohio man was excused from jury service after mentioning he was a childhood friend of cannibalistic serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.

John Backderf was among prospective jurors being screened last week by a judge in Cleveland.

When asked if he'd known anyone convicted of a crime, Backderf responded: "I had a close friend in high school who killed 17 people."

The Plain Dealer reports Monday the answer caused the judge to freeze and lawyers to drop their pens. Backderf explained he knew Dahmer, who was raised in northeast Ohio.

Backderf is a graphic novelist about to publish "My Friend Dahmer." He was dismissed from the jury list.

Dahmer confessed to killing and dismembering men and boys in Milwaukee. An inmate killed him in a Wisconsin prison in 1994.

I think jury duty could be fun once in a while. I always seem to get dismissed in a hurry though. Fuck 'em ... if you don't want honest answers, don't ask me for honest answers. Retards.

You might want to check that...I'm pretty sure it's mandatory. The two times I've been asked to report, I just no-showed. The "man" hasn't visited me - yet.

Or you could show up wearing one of Blurcher's patented "Team Cunt" t-shirts. That should do the trick.

Taken on it's own, I can see how it would. [B)]
