PLS HELP FAST!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!! Jordan is especially interested in the concept of being presumed innocent until proven

guilty. He is convinced that most jurors will form an initial opinion about whether or not the defendant is innocent or guilty from the first time they see the defendant. Jordan believes that initial impression can have a negative impact on the outcome of the case and plans to take that angle in the story he will be writing for the newspaper. To help Jordan determine if his theory is correct, you’ve decided to attend the trial with him and take on the role of a juror. You are determined to maintain an open mind and not form an initial impression of the defendant’s guilt or innocence.
Answer the following questions using a total of 3-5 sentences each:
How would you keep an open mind and truly presume the defendant is innocent at the start of the trial?
Describe at least three things you could do to uphold the presumption of innocence as a juror is supposed to do.

What must be done to keep an open mind and assume the defendant's innocence is to understand the situation, put yourself in the defendant's shoes and listen to what he or she has to say.

<h3>What is a defendant?</h3>
  • It is someone who has been accused of a crime.
  • It is someone who must go through a trial.
  • It is someone who can be convicted or acquitted.

During a trial, jurors need to be impartial and open-minded in deciding the defendant's guilt. In this case, understanding the situation where the crime occurred is essential.

In addition, the jury must put itself in the place of the defendant to have a better view of the acts promoted, and, finally, the defendant must be heard and explain the story from his own point of view.

More information about the jury is in the link:

The American court system is identified as an “______”
liubo4ka [24]

Option C is correct. United States uses the adversarial system in its courts. The opposing attorneys have responsibility for controlling presentation of lawsuit. Attorneys may not lie but have no duty to volunteer facts that don't support their client's case.

An impartial individual or group of people, typically a judge or jury, who try to ascertain the truth and pass judgement in accordance with it, is presented with two advocates presenting their parties' case or position under the adversarial system, also known as the adversary system, in common law countries.

Because it leaves less room for the state to be prejudiced against the defendant, advocates of the adversarial system frequently claim that it is more equitable and less prone to misuse than the inquisitional approach.
