STORIES OF JURY NULLIFICATION “I'have been on juries pretty often [over] the last 10 years. I'm in Saint Louis and especially after the Ferguson uprising, I've tried to get [my fellow jurors] to reconsider their own bias and how we often insert our own experience erroneously especially in regards to race and crime. I find gently asking questions about assumptions folks make to be pretty useful. Asking folks if their goal is punishment, protection for the vulnerable or rehabilitation can allow me to slide in word tracks about abolition without people realizing what Iam doing. And, of course, being prepared to be the hold out and explaining why I am, gently and in a granular way, can get others to join me.”
