The Power of Jury Nullification
| Today, we proudly celebrate Jury Rights Day, a time to honor the vital role of jury nullification in safeguarding liberty. Your support helps us champion this powerful tool for justice >>> Jury Rights Day celebrates the 1670 trial of William Penn in England, an event that established the right of jurors to conscientiously acquit a defendant, also known as jury nullification. In America, this principle empowered juries to protect fugitive slaves and resist oppressive statutes, and stands as a foundational right to this day. The Libertarian Party has long upheld jury nullification as a cornerstone of a free society, recognizing that citizens, through their verdict, can reject unjust laws that violate individual rights. To boost our voice, educating the public about this essential right, we need your help >>> By informing jurors of their right to judge both the law and the facts, we empower individuals to stand against tyranny. This Jury Rights Day, join us in spreading this message. |
| Be seeing you |
