Abolish Jury Trial
Jury of Peers
there are criminal barristers who exercise all the peremptory challenges in the hope if getting a jury that is likely to favour their cause
-
-
Transparency
-
judge gives reasons, jury does not
a lot of the views expressed in support of the jury, do not bear critical analysis
-
Judge alone
we appoint judges because of their education and their ability, to bring to bear an objective mind in considering guilt or innocence
guilty= want jury, innocent= want judge
Jury duty
we appoint jurors because they happen to be drawn from the electoral list and are unlucky enough not to be able to get out of service
no one wants to go, it is not compelling enough

-
Trial by media
without jury, there is no trial by media
Wrongful conviction
more likely with jury, less likely with judge
