I brought in my huge gilt-edged copy of War and Peace and lugged it into the courtroom.
The lawyers probably thought it was a Bible or I was an egghead if they realized it was Tolstoy. Plus I mentioned the OJ and Zimmerman case when they asked the question about a defendant not appearing on the witness stand.
I believe you will be thrown off because you are a social worker. Lawyers for both sides and the judge will be hesitant to have a potential jurer who is an expert in an area swaying other jurors in a forum that lacks any avenue to cross examine you. In other words they do not want third party experts influencing fellow jurors.
