  1. What will happen, if the DOJ does not root out the corruption, and prosecute those such as Hillary Clinton, and the other corrupt government officials who have clearly broken the law, as they prosecute common citizens, is that the courts will find it hard to find any jury that will not start nullifying every federal case. The DOJ and the FBI must have the respect and trust of the people, for the courts to work, and if they do not, I can see jury nullification coming into vogue, en masse, across the US. The DOJ needs to realize, that the citizens are not ignorant of the right of jury nullification, even though the courts will not inform the jurors about it.

  2. pappy hayes: When it comes to jury nullification, (a juror not agreeing with the law, thus he votes not guilty), I can see it being used, again, over this, but, as a juror, I would only state that I do not believe that the defendant is guilty, regardless of evidence, thus bringing about a hung jury. If they ask why, just state, with a grin, that he doesn't look guilty. I would not admit that I didn't agree with the law. There have been some courts, who tried to use a jurors oath against them, by not agreeing with the law, and thus, voting not guilty, but they can't do that, if you merely state that you do not believe that the evidence proves that they're guilty. I can see this coming to pass, if the DOJ keeps going down the road it's on. Instead of people avoiding jury duty, they'll jump at the chance to serve, for a federal case, just to annul the case. If a hung jury, or a complete jury, keeps coming back each time, there's not much that the court can do about it. The people used it against the government, long ago, and they can use it again.
