Yore Awnur, Can We "Nullify" Them Charges?

When I saw this circulating out there on the Interwebs Friday, it really made me laugh. It wasn't just the actual facts of the case, though even those seemed to almost hail from a place on par with Chris Seaton's fictional venue of Mud Lick, Alabama.

It was the jury.

Not to make fun of folks from any particular place, but who the Hell asks the court if it's OK for them to apply "jury nullification" to the charges they don't like?? I mean, WTF??

That's not how it works, people. That's not how any of that works.
