Show Notes
Sequestered. It’s a word most of us never think will apply to our lives—until it does. In this gripping first episode, Juror #11 takes us inside the moment she was called to serve on one of the most high-profile murder trials in Chattanooga’s history, TN vs Jason Chen.
From an unexpected voicemail about jury duty to the moment she surrendered her phone and freedom, Sara recounts the surreal experience of stepping into the legal process. She shares the tension of jury selection, the weight of being sworn in, and the shocking realization that she and 15 other strangers would decide the fate of Jason Chen—the man accused of brutally taking Jasmine Pace’s life.
This episode sets the stage for what’s to come: the isolation of sequestration, the emotional toll of the courtroom, and the responsibility of seeking justice. Through vivid storytelling and firsthand insight, SEQUESTERED pulls you into the heart of the trial, honoring Jasmine’s memory while uncovering the weighty reality of being a juror.
