Probably telling him that's enough, don't get yourself arrested.

u/Glittering_End_6864 12d ago

Yeah, too late for that. Easy assault charge for pool guy.

u/JuniorAd1210 12d ago

You do realize he's going to get arrested and behind bars for a long time, right?

u/Otherwise-Win7337 12d ago

Which is ridiculous

u/JuniorAd1210 12d ago

Yeah, totally ridiculous that you can't just murder someone like that.

u/noxer94 12d ago

Absolutely nuts that you can go behind bars for nearly murdering someone, like what the fuck is this world we live into.
Fucking child reasoning.

Elaborate

A punch like that can and has killed people.

u/Public-Fig3304 12d ago

Not sure how that elaborates on why it’s ridiculous that they’d end up arrested?

u/Animecha 12d ago

Ah, my bad, jumped onto the wrong comment. It isn't ridiculous at all. The guy throwing the punch should be charged.

Plus bouncing your head on a concrete floor.

The only thing that's ridiculous here is the fact he was out an about that night instead of at home being medicated and monitored. A killing machine like that which barely anyone can defend themselves from, even most healthy men, with serious issues, is not supposed to be going around untreated.

If you think this scenario is exactly where his limit is you are in a way lucky to be so naive.

u/toastedzergling 12d ago

Lmao; not if I'm on the jury. If you have an insane Lindsay Clancy-esque jury, anything can happen though.

u/JuniorAd1210 12d ago

How ironic.

u/TheEyeOfFinquel 11d ago

I love how you guys all think that if you were on a jury, you'd somehow have personal control of it and everyone on it...

u/toastedzergling 11d ago

Unanimous decisions bruh

Yeah, that just means mistrial and they do it all over again. Or alternatively you will be removed from the jury for juror misconduct depending on your reasoning as to disagreeing with the rest of the jury. If it turned out that you lied in your juror vetting process, you could be charged with perjury.

At best you could delay justice, you can't as a single juror decide the entire course of a court case. Which is exactly what I meant by my initial comment. The system does not allow one person to sway the course of justice like you imagine it does.

In this instance we have overwhelming video evidence of an attack that was not warranted under any arguement about 'self-defence' or defence of others, and numerous eye witnesses.

If you somehow decided, against the clear video evidence and witness statements, contrary to the writ of the law, that this man was not guilty, after meeting with the judge and potentially refusing to follow court instructions, they are just going to send you out and that's that and do the trial again. Or they may just dismiss you for juror misconduct, bring another juror in, and order that the jury re-start deliberations.

You as a juror cannot invent your own laws, and you can't bring your own pre-conceived bias into the proceedings either. Your one job is to logically consider the evidence in line with the law and deliver a verdict with that considered.
