This part was incredibly frustrating. Personal and second hand examples.

A lady believed the defendant couldn't possibly rob a place during his lunch break. It was a 5-10 minute drive from his workplace. Couldn't point this out on a map, because one wasn't introduced as evidence.

A lady couldn't believe that a corrections officer would just be a dick to an inmate. There is no way they would ever use the ability to search a cell to destroy property or as retaliation.
