Just thought more people should know about this cause… CGP Grey is awesome.

Sorry to post something that should be in the you should know community… but that’s in lemmy.world which would take this down.

Please let me know if I should post this somewhere else.

    The problem is they aren’t going to ask that, since it acknowledges jury nullification exists and just by asking the question you’ll lead a non zero number of jurors to look it up, ruining the jury.

      They ask “Is there anything that would prevent you from rendering a guilty verdict if there was proof beyond a reasonable doubt?”

      It’s a catch-all for jury nullification as well as other things, like bigotry (i.e. “Well obviously if there’s a black victim and a white defendant I’m not voting guilty.”)
