18 July 2007: Courting in Court

A couple who met while on jury duty are to be married next month.

The couple were both jurors in a murder trial in New York. Fellow jurors encouraged Juror number three, a lady called Traci, to go out for lunch with juror number six, a man called Jonathan, during a break in the trial.

The trial judge, who will also perform the wedding, remarked "Juries are serious or sombre, but this jury was full of beaming, happy people. I didn't imagine they were playing matchmaker.

SaintFM wishes the couple all the best, but hopes they also managed to pay some attention to the trial evidence.
