Abstract

In his book, Twenty Million Angry Men: The Case for Including Convicted Felons in Our Jury System, James Binnall discusses whether or not there is sound empirical evidence that proves that ex-convicts should be barred from participating in jury duty. Currently, most states in the United States permanently forbid those with a felony conviction from serving as a juror while some states allow convicted felons to serve only after their entire sentence (including parole and probation) is completed; Maine is the only state that has no restrictions whatsoever.
书评:詹姆斯·m·宾纳尔,《两千万愤怒的人:将已定罪的重罪犯纳入陪审团制度》
詹姆斯·宾纳尔在他的书《两千万愤怒的人:将已定罪的重罪犯纳入陪审团制度的案例》中讨论了是否有可靠的经验证据证明有前科的人应该被禁止参加陪审团。目前,美国大多数州永久禁止那些被判重罪的人担任陪审员,而一些州允许被定罪的重罪犯只有在他们的整个刑期(包括假释和缓刑)完成后才能任职;缅因州是唯一一个没有任何限制的州。
