Sequestered jury

A **Sequestered Jury** refers to a group of jurors who are isolated from the public and external influences during a trial to prevent exposure to outside information that could affect their impartiality. This usually occurs in high-profile or sensitive cases where media coverage and public opinion might impact the jury’s decision-making. Sequestration involves keeping jurors in a secure location, restricting their communication, and closely monitoring their activities until the trial concludes and a verdict is reached.
