"Dreadlocks shouldn't keep man from jury; S.C. Supreme Court rules potential juror shouldn't have been dismissed for hair"

ADVERTISEMENTS
"Dreadlocks shouldn't keep man from jury; S.C. Supreme Court rules potential juror shouldn't have been dismissed for hair": Today's edition of The State of Columbia, South Carolina contains an article that begins, "A black man with dreadlocks should not have been kept off a Florence County jury in a 2004 civil trial, the state's top court said Monday. The S.C. Supreme Court in a 3-2 decision said a defense lawyer's stated 'uneasiness' about the dreadlocks was not a 'race-neutral' reason for excluding the prospective juror."

You can access yesterday's ruling of the Supreme Court of South Carolina at this link (via "Religion Clause").
