If we return to informing juries of their rights, catchphrases like “If the glove don’t fit, you must acquit” will no longer have any effect on a jury decision.There will be no more past conviction records or evidence being ruled inadmissible like in the case of John Couey.

The 1895 Sparff VS The US decision is in my opinion the single worst supreme court decision of all time. It didn’t remove the power from the people but it allowed the court to forever hide the power from the people.
