I have it tomorrow, and I live in the state of Florida.
Remember that jury nullification exists. If you’re being asked to convict on something that’s bullshit, you can just say not guilty and the court can’t tell you that you gave the wrong answer.
This is a double edged property. It can be used as easily to shield some guy smoking pot from jail as a hate crime.
Just don’t tell them you’re nullifying because they’ll remove you.
Don’t mention jury nullification at all. Don’t even hint at it, not even with your fellow jurors. You will be replaced by an alternate juror if the judge gets a whiff of this.
The path to nullification may be a lonely and socially painful one in the deliberation room, and may result in a hung jury. You may have to stubbornly refuse to convict, against the pleading & cajoling of your eleven peers, and do it without revealing your true motive of nullification.
