From Atlantic County New Jersey–
JUDGE: Is there any reason you would like to be excused from service?
JUROR: Yes, I would like to speak to you at sidebar.
JUDGE: Sure
JUROR: I fear for my life
JUDGE: You should not fear the defendant
JUROR: No, not the defendant…I fear Juror Number 2. I am currently dating her soon-to-be ex-husband and she does not know he is dating so soon.
