Do you think there will be some who actually believe that wild theory?

I've been thinking about what a weird and wonderful at the same time, our legal system is:

The judge has TOTAL responsibility of determining the appropriate law.

The Jury has TOTAL responsibility for determing the facts.

The Prosecution has TOTAL responsibility for proving the claims.

The Defense has TOTAL responsibility to produce reasonable doubt.

The general public has NO responsibility and often acts that way.

It's kinda neat.
