Abstract
The fact that a person has served jail term is in some instances a bar to their participation in criminal proceedings as a juror. The assumption seems to be that the person would not be able to assess the alleged guilt of another in an objective manner. This paper challenges that assumption. The inclusion of an ex-prisoner on a jury may be seen as a further step towards the re-integration of that person into society.
