    My question is whether a jury would find him not guilty. If it were e.g. a grieving father who didn’t have to lose their child if UHC had covered some treatment, I could see a jury throwing the verdict. With this guy?

      But don’t they weed out biased people from juries? Before accepting someone onto a jury they’d ask “do you have a grudge against health insurance companies,” or something.

        I hope every juror who has ever had a claim denied by health insurance lies about it in the interview.

        I think you’re right. The difficulty is finding yanks who don’t have a grudge lol.

        I think that the “bias” thing has more to do with relation to the involved parties or the incident itself, not some general predisposition.
