Almost the same thing happened to me when I was selected for Jury Duty.
The prosecutor asked me if I'd be willing to convict someone based solely on testimony from the victim (paraphasing). I said "No, there'd have to be some kind of evidence." I was immediately dismissed by the prosecutor, using one of her for-whatever-reason juror dismissals.
Another guy said, "99% of people who are arrested are guilty." He was still on the jury when I was dismissed.
