It’s called “jury nullification.”

This is why Dems want unanimous juries. All they need is one “don’t put another black man in jail” juror and evidence doesn’t matter. Like the former Black Panther on O.J.’s jury who gave him the ‘black power’ salute after acquital, all about sticking it to whitey.

OJ Simpson juror who raised fist as he left court was a former Black Panther who says he has no regrets about not guilty verdict and still believes football player is innocent

Lionel Cryer is the juror who gave OJ Simpson a black power fist as he left the courtroom after the verdict

He revealed two years ago that he still believes Simpson is innocent

Cryer, a former Black Panther, also winked and smiled at Simpson before the verdict was revealed in court

Don’t you want unanimous juries too? Certainly in criminal capital matters, no?

Civil stuff, okay, preponderance may work, that’s only money/property, but criminal is a big step up.
