A link to an article on jury nullification.
Profsblog is not on my usual reading list. It is about a click away, linked to at volokh and crescat.
http://www.kaimipono.net/juries.pdf.
Kaimi, presumably a lawprof, is a contributor there, sometimes in his pajamas.
He's written an article, in the dreaded pdf pormat, comparing jury nullification to how juries award punitive damages. As much as any, it's an exploration about what's good about jury nullification, which is a meme i'm always happy to promote.
Cue indiana bill of rights section 19:
Section 19. Criminal cases--Jury determination
Section 19. In all criminal cases whatever, the jury shall have the right to determine the law and the facts.
Section 20. Civil cases--Right of trial by jury
Section 20. In all civil cases, the right of trial by jury shall remain inviolate.
