[1, 2, 3] What "Peer" Means Fellow citizens: A peer means an equal, which modern courts interpret as a random, representative cross-section of the local adult population.

Geographic basis: Jurors come from the same legal district or community where the court sits and the crime allegedly occurred. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
