The jury was not treated to gourmet meals, having dinner each night at the hotel restaurant and their lunches were either sandwiches (Pita Pit, Courthouse Cafe, Firehouse Subs) bar-b-que (Bono's and Sonny's) or pizza (two meals from Big Pete's Pizzaria).
The jurors themselves were paid about $7,300. The court also had about $1,600 in costs related to supplies, and overtime for the trial clerk.
That comes to a total of nearly $28,000.
