Mr Bearded Truth – 47 – The Power of the Jury with Tom Gallagher

The Jury of a court is so important, not just who makes it up but also understanding their power over cases. Joining Jason to talk about this is Tom Gallagher. Tom is a criminal defense lawyer in Minneapolis, where he's been defending people for 34 years so far. He is politically active, including volunteer work on issues like marijuana legalization, individual gun rights, and liberty issues generally. He frequently speaks publicly, and writes for his blog at https://gallagherdefense.com/blog/ . One of his interests is jury power and jury nullification, our main topic today.

President Joe Biden did not, however, comment on the logical conclusions of what's to come.
