They could be if they ignored the information regarding him telling the police that he was expecting them to return and that he’d sit waiting for them ready to shoot and kill them, then actually doing it.I honestly don't know the ins and outs of our Jury system, so all of this is supposition on my part.
I do know that juries in this country are unpredictable. In the Bristol Colston statue case the jury returned a not guilty verdict when it seemed the four defendants were clearly guilty of criminal damage.
So if the jury in this case shared the views expressed by @LangleyBlue1970 and @GaudinoMotors on this thread could the result be not guilty?
Genuinely interested in knowing more about this.
That’s as premeditated a murder as it gets.
So, unless a juror decides to ignore how the law works, he’ll get convicted of murder.
You can’t not convict because the victim was a ****!
In the unlikely outcome where 3 do this, it’d probably be a retrial.
