The supreme court’s 1895 decision that “jurors need not be informed of their rights” needs to be overturned.

If jurors had a clue of their power to do things like call witnesses and decide what is and isn’t admissible in court, we’d all be better off.

No doubt. Most criminal cases never even get to a jury. Very few. Common Criminals normally plea bargain. Casey was offered various lesser charge pleas by the State.. She chose to face a Murder 1 trial. How does that square with the Howling Lynch Mob demanding Justice for Caylee? They make me sick.
