Katie Couric was spotted on jury duty in Manhattan Criminal Court last week — but the news anchor didn’t make the cut when she asked the lawyers too many questions about the case.
Spies said the Yahoo and former “Today” anchor served for two days and even made it to the voir-dire process.
But “she wasn’t selected because she couldn’t help but try to turn the tables and start asking questions of the lawyers,” a spy said. “She was being too inquisitive” about the case, but was otherwise “super friendly” with her fellow potential jurors.
Last week at her day job, Couric also interviewed Edmond Jordan, the attorney for the family of Alton Sterling, who was fatally shot Tuesday in Baton Rouge, La.
