I wish I were on that jury. Selective prosecution cannot be allowed to stand.
Jury nullification is a very real...and soon to become very necessary...weapon against tyranny.
And it is Constitutionally protected.
It is reflected in the Sixth Amendment, which grants the accused an inviolable right to a jury determination of his guilt or innocence in all criminal prosecutions for serious offenses.
Because of this right, a trial judge absolutely cannot direct a verdict in favor of the State or set aside a jury's verdict of not guilty, no matter how overwhelming the evidence.
