A peremptory challenge is used by attorneys in the jury selection process to excuse potential jurors without providing a reason why. In this lesson you will learn about the use of peremptory strikes, as well as the laws designed to protect the integrity of the process.
While the process of selecting jurors may be too boring to be featured in popular T.V. crime dramas, any seasoned trial attorney will tell you that a trial can be lost or won in jury selection. So, what exactly makes the process so important? And how do attorneys pick the 'best' jury for each case?
The jury selection process, also know as 'voir dire', involves attorneys from each side taking turns picking the jurors they believe will favor their position over their opponent's. The term peremptory challenge refers to the practice of excusing potential jurors without providing a reason why. Jurors may also be excluded because the attorneys and the judge believe that the juror, for whatever reason, can't be fair. This is called a 'for cause' challenge.
Answer: Well, Im not in law school or college but Criminology is just like Psycology. Take a first-time killer for example, which after each murder (strangulation for example) puts the Lucifer pentagram on the body of each victim. The way the person was killed is the MMO. Motives, Means, and Opportunity. the way they killed the person, that will be their 'signature'. If a new victim comes up with the same signature and mmo, that will rank the murderer a serial killer. many people kill because they dislike the person, or are mentally ill. in the line of duty like fbi and homicide detective, they always try to understand exactly why the person did this. was it revenge? robbery gone wrong? copycat serial killer? (copycating is where you take a serial killer from the past and recreate their signature and mmo. if that serial killer isnt already dead or in prison, it might be thought that person has come back). all of this comes down to one word:
<h2>
profiling </h2>
since criminology is just the basic study of criminals and people and to why they do things, it will always be used in law enforcement and first responders.
i hope this helped!
