Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The variation in verdicts was likely caused by the fact that the mock jurors were unsure about the specific circumstances surrounding the case: whether the defendant killed her spouse during a fight or while he was sleeping. This uncertainty could have led to different interpretations of the defendant's motive and intent, which could have influenced the verdict.
