41. Tampering

Due to the lack of a penalty provision in the U.S. Constitution, judicial court judges often failed to fully inform jurors of their power to nullify the law in the case being heard. Instead, judges told jurors that they must decide the case on the "facts" presented, a form of jury tampering.

The freedom of jurors to ignore the facts and even disregard the law was a safeguard against over-zealous government prosecutors, politically-appointed judges, and bad law, which was the earlier experience in England in the case of William Penn.

In 1789, the first Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, John Jay;

"The jury has a right to judge both the law as well as the fact in controversy."

In 1796, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Chase;

"The jury has the right to determine both the law and the facts."

In 1902, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes;

"The jury has the power to bring a verdict in the teeth of both law and fact."

In 1941, Supreme Court Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone;

"The law itself is on trial as much as the cause which is to be decided."

With an AUTHENTIC CONSTITUTION in harmony with the natural Cosmic Laws of the universe, producing High Moral Values and Democratic Ideals, judges are automatically removed from office for failing to fully inform jurors of the right to nullify laws in the case being heard.
