Jurors are supposed impartially to consider the evidence, and only the evidence. Because of the seeming artificial rules of evidence, the jurors often feel that relevant information is being withheld from them. So they are tempted to browse the Internet, and pass the information on to their colleagues. The judge warns the jurors, but the practice is difficult to stop. Electronic devices can be surrendered during the trial, but there can be no control at home. If the abuse does come to light, then the trial will have to be restarted afresh, and the offending juror punished.

陪审团正在被互联网杀死

陪审员应该公正地考虑证据,而且只考虑证据。由于看似人为的证据规则,陪审员常常觉得相关信息被隐瞒了。所以他们很想浏览互联网,并将信息传递给他们的同事。法官警告陪审员,但这种做法很难停止。电子设备在庭审过程中可以交出,但在家中无法控制。如果虐待被曝光,那么审判将不得不重新开始,并惩罚违规的陪审员。
