Jury nullification is when a jury passes a verdict that is in direct contradiction to the stated law. For example, Say Roe v. Wade is overturned. A doctor is on trial for performing an illegal abortion, he admits that he did it and he knew it was illegal, but the jury finds him innocent. How do you feel about that jury ignoring the law?
