"A juror who is forced by the judge’s instructions to convict a defendant whose conduct he applauds or at the least feels is justifiable, will lose respect for the legal system. . . . A juror compelled to decide against his own judgment will rebel at the system that made him a traitor to himself." | Quote by: | Alan W. Scheflin Professor of Law at Santa Clara University School of Law in California |
