I have to make an argument for her: Her facts are incorrect, but in the end she makes a well-reasoned argument about jury-nullification:

There is no reason to believe, however, that giving juries the authority to ignore the law will achieve more just results. To the contrary, as history has shown, it will accomplish quite the opposite.

She also makes a good point about the courts becoming wildly unpredictable and unjust if nullification becomes common (which is a situation that presently exists). She can learn the facts, if she wants to, but good reasoning skills can be harder to come by. She has within her the capacity to become a first-rate attorney, if she wants to. That last part remains to be seen.
