Argument #5 jurors might be more sympathetic than a judge because they may follow their feelings rather than strictly following the law.**
If a young person is accused of a robbery.Under the law, a young person who steals one thing from a store, they deserve a second chance
some jurors acts on personal strong feelings, but it is a bad thing.
Imagine that a police breaks into a person house and found evidence linking that person to a crime against a child.But if the crime is awful it may be hard for jurors to put aside there feelings about chidren.
Argument #6 jurors, unlike many judges, have all the time they need to make a decision.
Jurors have a really important job .jurors know that someone else’s life and livelihood are in there good hands, and they take that very seriously.

Judges are more busy than jurors are , judges are really busy their court schedule are often crowded that they can’t have enough time to look at every aspect of a case.
Argument #3 with a jury, there can be more control.If you have been accused of crime you or your lawyer may be asked to help select the jury.

If you are helping select a jury.you are likely to be judge by a jury of your peers or people like yourself.
judges are supposed to be impartial, you cant know how they will decide your case.Even if you suspect that a judge may decide against you.
both of these potential jurors would be challenged.this is a way to make sure that the people who have input in your case are really going to be fair.
Some cases employ a psychologist to help lawyers select the best jury possible.These psychologist develop profiles of potential jurors, and these help the lawyers select the people they feel can be most impartial
In the movie, Twevle Angry Men, one juror believed in a boy’s innocence and he convinced the other jurors of his innocence.woulden’t want a juror to convince others of our innocence if we were wrongly convicted of a crime.
A jury lets people deliberate , or fully and from many different sides to come to the best decision for a given case.
