Clay Conrad author of Jury Nullification joins DTN host Becker to discuss the obvious and glaring need for actual control, not the supposed DEA manifesto of failure. Discussion around psychedelics, weed and opiates.In Jury Nullification, author Clay Conrad examines the history, the law, and the practical and political implications of jury independence, examining in depth the role of nullification in capital punishment law, the dark side of jury nullification in Southern lynching and civil rights cases, and the purpose and legal effect of the juror's oath. This book should be of interest to historians, trial lawyers, criminologists, political scientists, and anyone interested in knowing how our criminal justice system works – and how to make it better.
