"Does black indigent really make a difference vs. white indigent or hispanic indigent?" Statistically speaking, I'd bet predominantly black juries acquit white defendants at a higher rate than they do black ones, and the same holds true for predominantly white juries. Yet I don't believe white defendants who appear in court are proportionately innocent more often than blacks. America has a baseline of discrimination that taints our justice system, and I'd rather be a white trailer trash indigent defendant than a black or hispanic one any day. How about you? If you had a choice, what color skin would you pick to wear to court?
