U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro said a new trial would not be sufficient to address the problems in the case and would provide the prosecution with an unfair advantage going forward. She dismissed the charges against the four men "with prejudice," meaning they cannot face trial again.

I've never been selected for a jury. I imagine you have to take an oath to enforce the law. If so, B and C are not what you have sworn to do. If you can't do that, say so and not be chosen to serve .
