Juries really don't factor in that much to the system. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/11/opinion/sunday/go-to-trial-crash-the-justice-system.html?_r=0 Roughly 90% of all criminal cases that would mandate a jury trial just don't go there at all.

That said, Juries do, often, seem to understand the concept of "reasonable doubt" and do their job as described.

The cases of Casey Anthony and OJ Simpson are actually triumphs of the system. The jurors in Casey Anthony have stated that they were pretty sure the mother killed her baby, but that they could not go beyond a reasonable doubt, so she had to walk.


You pervert.  You took this thread's pants off, made it stand here naked in front of everyone, and then nailed it.
