I did not create this post, I am merely sharing it from a writer going by the name of "JohnCocktostn".... Jury nullification is something you will never hear a judge talk about when addressing a jury, as most judges thinks it gives too much power to a jury. But jury members don't realize just how much power they have. If any of you are ever called for jury duty, know these simple facts first:
Calling all pedes: A brief on types of juries, nullification, and how YOU can effectuate justice.

Hi, Frens!
The purpose of this short PSA is to explain jury duty to everyone, what the different types of juries are, and how your service when called is ESSENTIAL to the fight against cucked prosecutors and tyrannical government. If you receive a jury summons, it is of the utmost importance that you comply and attend. Somewhere out there, there might be a fren in need who's ass is in a sling and needs one of us to save them from a Binger, a Weissman, a Mueller, or (insert any cucked prosecutor name here).
In the USA, there are 2 types of juries. Grand juries and petit juries. Grand juries are used at both the federal and state level. The Constitution of the United States requires that federal charges be brought by grand jury indictment. Federal Grand juries are typically composed of 23 members, of which 16 must be present to constitute a quorum. Grand juries do not judge the guilt or innocence of the defendant. They are tasked with making a finding that probable cause exists the defendant committed a crime. A US attorney will present evidence to the grand jury, and 16 of the 23 must vote to indict the defendant for the charge to be filed. When this happens, it is called "returning a true bill." A failure to get 16 of 23 votes is "failing to return a true bill."
The Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure provide for slightly smaller grand juries, with a minimum of 12 to return a true bill. In practice, this is rarely, if ever, seen. Grand jurors may be asked by the prosecutor to view evidence, listen to witness testimony, and are permitted to ask questions of witnesses. Prosecutors often utilize the power of grand juries as investigative tools to elicit further evidence of a possible crime. Witness testimony can be compelled in a grand jury proceeding. And defendants can legally be compelled to testify before a grand jury, in spite of their 5th amendment privilege against self incrimination. Said defendant will be required to show up and assert this right to the grand jury. They cannot be compelled to testify against themselves, but they can be compelled to assert this right to the grand jury and the grand jury is under no obligation to hold this as a legitimate exercise of constitutional privilege. However, current DOJ policy is not to make defendants do this to avoid lengthy pretrial litigation over the sufficiency of indictments.
Prosecutors DO NOT have to adduce evidence to the grand jury that might exonerate the defendant. This is not an adversarial proceeding. It is very one sided. Which is why the saying "a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich if the prosecutor wants them to" comes from. This is one of the reasons it is extremely important to be vigilant and participate in these proceedings.
As a citizen on a grand jury, you must keep your sniffer up. These guys must indict via this process in order to railroad someone. So it is your job to detect this and refuse to do it when it is before you. Certainly you will sit on some cases where a defendant needs to be charged. But don't get roped into the prosecutor's bullshit too hard. Be smart and ask the right questions. Don't let a fren get caught up in a railroading because you either didn't serve on the grand jury or you didn't speak up. And you are free to share your feelings with other grand jurors. Let everyone know what you think and why its bogus if you think so. It is your civic duty to be the check on cucked prosecutors. This is one of the many ways.
State grand juries function similarly to federal grand juries with minor nuances. Not every state requires indictment by grand jury, and some states will require it for certain charges and not others. While others will allow a complaint to be filed by a prosecutor or a true bill by grand jury. Your state will outline this in their state rules of criminal procedure which you can look up.
Petit juries are what we all are familiar with. They exist on state and federal levels. In criminal trials, this is where they must get unanimous 12 person verdicts to convict. As annoying af as it can be to get called, we must serve on these. Jurors are going to have the final say on Kyle, and cucked jurors give cucked verdicts for cucked prosecutors. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO CONVICT ANYONE that you do not feel is guilty. Or that you feel was brought up on bogus charges. Your jury vote cannot be second guessed by anyone. And you are free to persuade fellow jurors to your line of thinking. Some call this "nullification" and it drives some lawyers/judges/politicians mad. But this is your civic right in the USA. Just say "NO!" to cucked charges and corrupt prosecutions. Simply refuse to do it.
This is my PSA. I am happy to answer any legitimate questions you all might have. But I cannot emphasize enough how important it is that we fulfill this duty in this current crisis. We must fill the seats to check the corrupt powers that be and save a fren in need.
Kinda what I would like to happen.
