Default Re: Right to a fair trial

You are suggesting that one could be sent to prison for being part of a jury that convicted a person based on false evidence. As a juror, one is supposed to make a judgement based upon the evidence presented at trial. If that evidence is flawed or false, a juror's decision will be commensurately flawed. Your scenario is anathema to liberty. Thus, "Yikes!"

So let me get this straight; the evidence can be flawed or false, yet you think it's fair to decide things this way, provided it doesn't affect you?

Uh... no. Where did you get that?

[/ QUOTE ]Ok so it isn't fair to judge someone on possibly false or flawed evidence? It was just the responsiblity of jurors in the OP that you didn't like.
