Yes, does OJ ring a bell?
How is that (and what the black jurors in the immediate case attempted to do) not the same thing as jury nullification?
Maybe an automatic death sentence for murder would help. Of course, there would have to be a murder conviction. Maybe there was in this state; I don’t know.
