How are jury decisions in Louisiana different from those in most other US states?

History
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
8 0

In Louisiana Jury decision need not be unanimous.

Explanation:

Each and every Juror need not be convinced for the defendant' guilt. If the judges claim to be of similar opinion then the guilt proves to be reasonable but its not the majority of the judges opinion. Judges love this process as it expedites the deliberations and most of the cases are solved faster.

Unanimity is required in all criminal cases which are of third degree severity. In a state where the racial disparity is to the maximum and unanimity of jury persists then, there are many chances for the defendant to be convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole based upon a 10-2 vote of the jury decisions.

Why did hundreds of people send canes to Preston Brooks?
nekit [7.7K]
Preston Brooks was a Southern Congressman and a passionate advocate of Southern Rights. Charles Sumner was an ardent abolitionist who delivered an impassioned speech against the authors of the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1856. He also ridiculed the speech impediment of one of the authors, Andrew Butler. Preston Brooks got angry because he was the nephew of Andrew Butler. Together with a friend, Brooks approached Sumner as the latter worked at his desk and started caning Sumner. Sumner collapsed in the aisle and Preston Brooks continued caning him until his cane broke. Southerners sent canes to Preston Brooks to replace the one he broke.

What are some examples of Roman imperial military power
enyata [817]

There are lots of examples of the Roman imperial military power, some of which are:

- The battle with the Gauls; the Romans managed to exhibit great tactical knowledge and skills in the battle with the Gauls. They managed to push them exactly where they wanted them, built two walls around them and trapped them, and used their formations very cleverly in every situation by changing tactics as the circumstances required.  

- The wars with Macedonia; this three wars were a nice example as to how the Roman military was evolving, learning, and developing with every single battle. In each of the wars a different tactic and formations were used, and the Romans managed to develop few new ones as well as to make their weaknesses another strong asset, and they managed with the final defeat on the Macedonians when they again managed to use the terrain in their advantage and place the Macedonian army exactly were they wanted so that they are weakened in defense while the Romans were in great attacking advantage.
