Her Excuse For Getting Out Of The Parkland Jury Is Absolutely….
One potential juror in the sentencing of the Parkland shooting trial has a very unique reason to back out from her duty.
On Monday morning, the New York native identified as Ms. Bristol provided her personal reasons to Judge Elizabeth Scherer as to why she couldn’t participate in the trial. The married woman reasoned out that aside from her two sons coming birthdays she also has a sugar daddy which she sees every day.
“First of all, let me clarify myself,” the potential juror said. “July 7th is my birthday, the 4th is my son’s birthday and the 18th is my other son, so that ain’t gonna out work for me.”
“Then again, I need to figure out something,” Ms. Bristol continued. “I have my sugar daddy that I see every day.”

“If I do this case for six months, I have a hardship that means my sugar daddy can’t support me,” she reasoned out over the weekend.
She also noted that once she accepted the responsibility, it would put her in a financial bind of exactly $8,000 a month.
“It’s all day for six-months and what’s my hardship? I need my sugar daddy money. I said to the judge, ‘I have a sugar daddy and I’m married and I have a husband,’ just like that,” Bristol added.
The judge told the woman the court would get back to her, according to outlets. She was eventually dismissed.
According to the Yahoo News report, Once selected, the jury will decide whether Cruz will get life in prison or the death penalty for killing 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in 2018. He pleaded guilty to murder and attempted murder in October.

“Florida court clerks are going to have to add the sugar daddy exception to jury service,” former state prosecutor Mark Hartig wrote.
Another called it the “best excuse I’ve ever heard”.
