If you have ever served on a jury, then you know these truths.
For a jury to reach a decision on each count in under 20 minutes a count, there was no deliberation. ( that’s not counting bathroom breaks, lunches, or New Yorkers propensity to argue) I’ve been on a jury with a DUI at issue where no facts were disputed and it was over 2 hrs on the only issue as each person spoke their turn. And then it was a hung jury 11-1 (not me). The one person didn’t like the police and was convinced the breathalyzer was rigged. The problem in the future is no perceived justice in the courts leads to street justice, and that isn’t a good place to be.
