CHICAGO - Called for jury duty at the Cook County Criminal Court, actor Mr. T did not shirk his civic duty on Monday.

Mr. T: Model citizen.

Sadly, he was not selected for the jury.

However, the “A-Team” star did utter some particular sage bon mots.

“It’s not about ‘The A-Team;’ it’s the J-Team — the jury team,” said Mr. T.

Like all who served the day at the courthouse, Mr. T was paid $17.20 for his troubles.

As for not being selected for the jury in a drug trial, Mr. T was philisophical, “If you’re innocent, I’m your best man,” he said. “But if you’re guilty, I pity that fool.”

Well said, Mr. T. Well said.
