Um...what? ~ "The New Mexico Supreme Court is cautioning the state’s trial courts that citizens who don’t speak English have the right to serve on juries. The court issued the admonition in a ruling that upholds an Albuquerque man’s convictions for murder and other crimes in the bludgeoning death of his girlfriend and a subsequent armed robbery and stabbing. Michael Samora’s appeal argued that his convictions should be reversed because the Bernalillo County court excused a Spanish-speaking prospective juror who had trouble understanding English."
