Judge Miller highlights the challenge of removing bias from court cases

Judge Miller highlighted the challenge of choosing a jury that would not be biased towards the case. I previously assumed that this was a more streamlined process and that the legal system has found a fool-proof way to select an appropriate jury, but this assumption was wrong. For example, Judge Miller highlighted the potential influence that geography, population, etc can have on selecting a jury. For example, in certain places it may be difficult to create a jury that is racially diverse, even though that may be the best possible outcome for a fair trial. This made me realize some additional loopholes that exist in the legal system.
