Commenter [1]LawClerk points to S.C. Code Ann. � 14-7-1060, which until 2006 provided that juror choices be made �[by a] child under ten years of age, or by a blind person.� This has now been changed to the much less colorful requirement that the drawing be by a �responsible and impartial person designated by the clerk of court, with the approval of the presiding judge.� References 1. http://volokh.com/posts/1233085719.shtml#523590
