      Right, and I think we are seeing increasing cases of jury nullification, especially for civil disobedience against ICE. However, the reality is that Lemmy is a bubble. Luigi and his alleged murder are nowhere near as popular among the greater population as he is here. So that’s why I think the chance of a hung jury is higher than nullification. Hung jury can happen if there is just one or a few people who refuse to convict. But jury nullification requires unanimity. There’s bound to be at least a few law & order boomer types on the jury. But only time will tell.
