your family and friends that you're a juror in a criminal case,
but you may not tell them anything else about it until you've
been discharged by me.
Third, do not let anyone talk to you about the case or
about anyone who has anything to do with it. If any person
should attempt to communicate with you about this case at any
time throughout the trial, either in or out of the courthouse,
you must immediately report that to my deputy, Ms. Williams,
and to no one else. Ms. Williams will report it to me. And
when I say report that communication to no one else, I mean you
should not tell anyone, including your fellow jurors. To
minimize the probability of any such improper communication, it
is important that you go straight to the jury room when you
come in in the morning, and that you remain in the jury room
for the duration of the trial day. You should not linger in
the public areas of the courthouse on this floor or elsewhere
on your way in and out.
Fourth, do not do any research or any investigation
about the case or about anyone who has anything to do with the
case on your own. Don't go visit any place described in the
trial, don't read or listen to or watch any news reports about
the case, don't go on the internet or use whatever digital or
communications device it is you use to see what you can learn
to inform yourself about this matter. Again, I know that in
this day and age there is a temptation, but as I've made clear
