The 6th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees all persons accused of a crime the right to a speedy trial. The Constitution, however, says nothing about the right to a Swift trial…a Taylor Swift trial.
Taylor was conspicuously absent from last night’s MTV Video Music Awards, but this morning (Aug. 29), she was present for jury duty in Nashville, although she was later dismissed. Check out the tweets below.

Jurors are asked to explain their line of work. Taylor Swift is asked, few people chuckle at the obvious. She responds, "I'm a songwriter."
