Product Description
For ten years, AMERICAN JUSTICE® has taken viewers inside the nation's courtrooms to see how guilt and innocence are determined. And at the heart of almost all these tales are 12 ordinary men and women, citizens selected to determine the fate of the people brought before them.
WE, THE JURY looks at some of the most important and memorable cases in the decade-long history of AMERICAN JUSTICE® through the eyes of the juries, showing how typical Americans struggle to come to grips with a legal system of mushrooming complexity, and challenged to determine, in some cases, not just guilt or innocence, but questions of life or death. The focus is on some of the highest profile cases of this time, involving names like Simpson, King, Kervorkian, Menendez and Denny. Meet the people who served in the juries, including one woman who risked facing jail time herself to defend the courage of her convictions.
Without them, the judges, lawyers and bailiffs would have no purpose; they are at the heart of AMERICAN JUSTICE®. WE, THE JURY is their story.
