What about a no-knock raid; especially one on the wrong house?

Tough call.

If I'm on the jury its an easy NOT GUILTY from me. But then I'm a firm believer in Jury Nullification. (That's why I'll never sit on a jury in a criminal case).

All you have to say is that you will follow the law as given by the judge; just don’t mention that you will also foolew the law regarding the jury being the judge of both the facts and the law.

If a judge will lie to you about being required to follow his instructions, I’d feel duty to obey an unlawful instruction.
