    About this ebook

    Jim receives a notice of jury duty. When he appears for jury selection, the prosecutor states, "This is a second degree murder case, the State of Georgia versus Jose Mendez. Mr. Mendez has been indicted for having murdered Gregory DeLoach." Gregory was Jim's secret lover. Jim and Greg were very careful to keep their special relationship private, meeting in different nearby cities, staying at different motels under false names, sometimes wearing disguises, such as glasses, false mustaches or even wigs. To his surprise, Jim becomes Juror Number 6. Does justice win out? What happens after the trial?

      Jim, looking through the pile of envelopes with plastic address windows, noticed bills from Coastal Electric Cooperative, the City of Midway water bill and his Comcast bill, along with an envelope with the return address of Liberty County Superior Court. This could only mean
