    If they do find him, the prosecutors are going to have a hell of a time trying to weed out anyone interested in jury nullification.

      Incorrect. You’re in a social media bubble.

      The average person who gets chosen for jury duty somehow won’t know who this guy is despite reports on every media outlet. It blows my mind how oblivious those people can be.

        Yuuuup. Like that spike in Google searches for “did Biden drop out” or whatever during the week leading up to the election. A lot of people live with their head in the sand.

        In that case the jury conversation will go something like this: “I wonder why the judge won’t allow anyone to know the victim’s occupation?”
        The second the jury finds out this guy was a health-insurance CEO, half of them will shrug and go “time served”.

      If I asked every single person I’m on a first name basis with what jury nullification was I bet a large sum of money that none of them would have an answer.

          That’s not the point.

          It’s to demonstrate that almost no one knows what it means.

        The thing about fight club. Never talk about fight club is that what you mean like you can’t talk about history and stuff?
