Robert Barnes provides a "Legal 101" overview of jury selection, explaining how jurors often filter evidence through "memento memory" based on preconceived biases. He discusses the history of the jury's power to decide both facts and law, and how the court system has gradually usurped the power to determine law. The segment also touches on how jury pools can be manipulated through summons and specific questioning.
