## Resource

In Hamilton County, Ohio, citizens are stepping up to serve on grand juries — not to judge guilt or innocence, but to decide if there’s enough evidence to move cases forward. These jurors review over a hundred cases in just two weeks, often exposed to harrowing details of violent crimes. To ease the emotional toll, therapy dog Basil has become a beloved presence, offering comfort to both jurors and victims. Despite the intensity, many leave with a deeper appreciation for justice and their community — forging lasting bonds and even changing how they give back. It’s a demanding, temporary civic duty that plays a vital role in keeping the legal system fair and thorough. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
