Umm, in america, they say you're innocent until proven guilty but often times sit in jailfor well over a year before ever seeing a judge..
Just saying..
I'm not saying our judicial system sucks, but how many of us have ever been arrested else where for a point of comparison? Granted, there are a few countries I won't go to for fear of prosecution, but saying that, I've also been thrown in jail, no less than twice, for possession of under a gram of cannabis, and one time the amount was .04 grams.. .04, yet to jail I went..
I think I'm going to do it, there was some good points made and a lot of crazy ones to, but If I get on the grand jury I could help out a few people over come bullshit charges like Marijuana cases.. drunk drivers, rapist, old lady beaters will be fucked ! no love 4 them.

Italian court
France is even worse....Napoleonic system: you must prove your innocence
Just make sure the evidence is good. There ARE innocent people in prison.
Yep....and Louisiana doesn't allow outta state lawyers to participate in trial
The fact that you are drawing conclusions simply based on what the charges are, before you see a shred of evidence, is scary as fuck.. I've been charged with rape and was completely innocent. I chose a bench trial because people with your mindset exist. Think about what clayton said.
This was how the laws changed in Colorado...jury nullification. Although juries are sworn to uphold the law, there are no real consequences for ignoring it.
When juries refuse to convict, state's attorneys' offices stop prosecuting.
What a great system we have...err...when it can be manipulated from within.
He's not the trier of fact, only voting for or against the case going forward.
Yeah, momma, and before he decides if some poor bastard has to go to jail for who knows how long, and come up with money they probably don't have for a decent attorney. They have to present a good enough case to indict at the GJ, no?
From what I understand the prosecutor basically gets to have their way with the grand jury. The defense does not get an opportunity to fight the charges during indictment the grand jury simply hears the prosecutions side of the story and makes a decision based upon the information that is presented. If they have enough "evidence" to make a conviction then the case will go to trial. When I had to deal with that shit, the police/prosecution version of what happened was way different than how the actual events unfolded.
Well I've gotten 2 or 3 of them telling me I have to fill out some form and return it as I was being summoned for jury duty, and I just pitched them.

I just got a letter, saying Grand Jury Summons
It's been so long I forget how I got out of it last time any ideals ?
I did write up a letter saying: I think the court systems is a bad joke and that I do not agree with the laws of this land, I just live here. If called on I could not alter my beliefs at the order of the court. Juror ID ***********
Ended with: You really don't want me on a Jury...
But have not sent it in yet... I really don't give a fuck about the court or there bullshit, If someone comes at me or mine I don't use the police or court I handle the problem myself what ever it maybe, so way should I be in there circus ?
Why did you do it ?? Lmfao
so what your saying is I'll be a normal juror.
