    I wonder… jury nullification is a thing… and when the jury is selected, i wonder if the prosecutors will aim for low aged people… because what are the odds that the elderly general public didn’t get screwed over by their health care provider? Yet the younger crowd is all for that eating the rich thing… i guess they will have to fill the jury with CEO’s

      I wonder if a good lawyer could argue that any jury that finds him guilty are, by definition, not his peers.

        I don’t see that working even if the court system hadn’t evolved into an apparatus solely for the enforcement of class strata. His peers are the general public.
