        Jury Nullification! The court can’t send you back for delivering the “wrong” verdict.

        So hypothetically even if there’s a ten minute 4k video of you beating a cop to the death while screaming “Die you fucking pig”, the jury could say “Not Guilty”. They don’t have to show their work.

      Unfortunately, it’s harder and harder to believe we’ll see real, meaningful improvement on the systemic issues involved in a case like this without a period of violence. I hope and pray we figure out the secret to peaceful revolution, if that’s even possible.

      That said, I do not disagree with your post.
