Whats the judge going to do if they return a "not guilty" verdict?, throw the jury in jail?

I heard a little about this some time ago, my brother told he was to be on the jury, but got out of it as he could not afford to be out of work for the lengthy time the trial was expected to last.
If he had remained the judge probably would have become familiar with "Jury Nullification". It's a damn shame no one still on the jury exercised that right.
