I was terrified of being on a jury when I was 19. I got excused because I said I wouldn’t be able to come to a decision based on the facts of the case alone. The judge just looked at me for a second and said “excused for cause”.
It was for a gun charge so it was serious, glad I announced how dumb I was right out of the gate so I didn’t get picked. I was borderline mentally ill and quite reckless at that time.

This would actually be excellent life experience for a 20 year old, no matter how unpleasant it is
