Respuesta :

Based on the man's daughter being a detective, Prisha will most likely D. Challenge the selection of the juror for cause, since he is unlikely to be impartial.

Why would Prisha challenge the selection?

In picking the jury, both the prosecution and the defendant will try to make sure that the jury is as impartial as possible.

A man whose daughter is a police detective is not likely to be impartial in a case about the killing of a police officer so Prisha should try to reject him.
