Correct. No such thing as an untainted, unbiased jury. Maybe in a perfect world, but not this one in which we live.
You might be right. OJ is a case in point. That's why people have good lawyers, and jury selection consultants, etc. If Tyson was convicted cause he wasn't white, then he had a stupid lawyer.
