You may not have heard of jury consultant Jo-Ellan Dimitrius, but there’s a good chance you’ve heard of one of her many clients, including O.J. Simpson and Scott Peterson and Kyle Rittenhouse. She worked alongside the criminal defense teams as Simpson and Peterson, respectively, stood trial on charges of murdering his ex-wife and his wife and with Rittenhouse’s team as he stood trial on charges that he wrongly killed two men at a protest that followed the police killing of a suspect.
Dimitrius began working “hand in hand” with Rittenhouse’s lawyers months before his trial in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Among other things, she conducted three different mock juries and ran various scenarios by them, including one in which Rittenhouse testified in his own defense. He ended up taking the stand and was acquitted. Dimitrius calls the process of doing a deep dive into a juror’s background a “juror polygraph.
