Juror Five served on a three-week civil case in October 2020 that unearthed the story of a 27-year old man who died shortly after calling 911 because he couldn't breathe. The day before his death, he was treated at a Seattle-area urgent care facility for shortness of breath and sent home. The judicial system failed to deliver justice. This tragic, true narrative combines medical malpractice, pulmonary embolisms, organ donation, university medical systems, courtroom drama, juror reactions, an insight to the deliberation room, and the COVID-19 virus.

There is something for everyone in this book: Judges, trial lawyers, jury consultants will see the whole trial from a juror's perspective. Patients or their family members can put themselves in the jury's shoes before spending time, energy, and emotion suing for medical malpractice. Doctors and health care systems can appreciate how jurors react to trial strategies. Future jurors can learn what happens in a trial and avoid our mistakes. Researchers, law professors, and law students can inform research with this valuable and rare insight.
