A prospective juror in a Dallas District Court was surprised by the
definition of voluntary manslaughter given the panel: "An intentional
killing that occurs while the defendant is under the immediate
influence of sudden passion arising from an adequate cause, such as
when a spouse's mate is found in a 'compromising' position."

"See, I have a problem with that passion business," responded the
jury candidate. "During my first marriage, I came in and found my
husband in bed with my neighbor. All I did was divorce him. I had no
idea that I could have shot him."

She wasn't selected for the jury.
