We have a very flawed system in which we use everyday citizens who are busy living life and uninterested in jury duty. But we force people with no knowledge of the law to carry out the duty of judging if someone spends the rest of their life ion prison. Judges force people to continue deliberating even when they say they are deadlocked. which can lead to a compromised verdicts because people want to go home to their families.
