The selection of jurors is typically managed by the court system, often through a process called "jury selection" or "voir dire." Potential jurors are randomly chosen from a pool of eligible citizens, usually from voter registration lists or other public records. Both the prosecution and defense have the opportunity to question these potential jurors and can challenge their inclusion through a limited number of peremptory challenges or for cause. Ultimately, the final jury is composed of individuals who are deemed impartial and capable of fairly deciding the case.

Can the jury decide what the evidence is in a case?
That depends on what "decide what the evidence is" means. The jury does not decide what evidence is admissible in the court; that is up to the judge, and is one of the judge's primary responsibilities. If the attorney for one side or the other thinks evidence should not be admitted, they can make a motion to suppress or exclude it on various grounds, or object during the trial. If the judge decides that the jury should not consider a certain piece of evidence that was introduced, he or she can instruct the jury to disregard it. The jury's only role is to decide whether the defendant is guilty or not (or to find for the plaintiff or the defendant in a civil case).
