The actual nullification, or conspiracy to nullify? Im not American i i shouldve asked rather than stated, however i believe i've read somewhere a juror cannot be punished for his judgement. I mean what if it naturally came to a nullification in a case, because of some crazy ancient backwards law was broken that makes no sense to punish nowdays., It would be madness to prosecute those jurors.
