Jury Nullification: Why It’s Needed

The Law says Innocent until proven guilty. But in the 1850’s, juries in Pennsylvania refused to convict Quakers accused of aiding runaway slaves in defiance of the Fugitive Slave Act. Juries can act contrary to the law and nullification has a long history in this country.
