Jury nullification occurs when a jury returns a Not Guilty verdict even though jurors believe beyond reasonable doubt that the defendant has broken the law. Because the Not Guilty verdict cannot be overturned, and because the jurors cannot be punished for their verdict, the law is said to be nullified in that particular case.
i was watching the live stream when that happened. i laughed out loud when he said that. i would be more willing than most to nullify if i were on a jury and thought the law were wrong, but i would take great pleasure in sending that particular scumbag to prison for the rest of his life
