Murder Trial Juror Booted for Invoking Numerology

Washpost reports:Murder Trial Juror Booted for Invoking Numerology

The jury was trying to decide a high-profile murder case when the trouble began. One of the jurors brought numerology into the debate -- a mystical system said to divine truths from a person's birth date and from the sum of the letters in a person's name.

She got booted. That's not the only odd part about the trial for the supposed killers of 14-year-old Jahkema "Princess" Hansen.

In addition to talking about numbers, the juror had declared that she was the savior, there to force a mistrial.

From a prosecution witness's apparently testifying while high on marijuana to a juror finding herself followed home by a key figure in the case, the trial has not lacked the unexpected.
