"Jurors should acquit, even against the judge's instruction... if exercising their judgement with discretion and honesty they have a clear conviction the charge of the court is wrong." ~ Alexander Hamilton, 1804

"It is not only the juror's right, but his duty to find the verdict according to his own best understanding, judgement and conscience, though in direct opposition to the instruction of the court." ~ John Adams, 1771

Dutch Pimp Reviewed by Dutch Pimp on . ask your lawyers about NULLIFICATION, if charged ... my lawyer told me all about this, many years ago, but I couldn't remember what he called it ... it is called the 'Nullification' Law, and the lawyers, judges, and prosecutors, usually don't want the jury to know about it ... basically, if a juror sees they have overwhelming evidence against you, but doesn't think you deserve to go to jail for the crime, said jury member can refuse to find you guilty, evidence or not ... no way, this day and age, that you're not gonna find 'pro-pot' jurors, and Rating: 5
