legally inconsistent verdict

Read a random definition: primary conveyance

A quick definition of legally inconsistent verdict:

A legally inconsistent verdict is when the decision made by a jury is flawed because it contradicts itself. This means that the jury may find that something both exists and does not exist, or that a defendant is found not guilty of one crime but guilty of another crime that relies on the first crime being committed.

A more thorough explanation:

A legally inconsistent verdict is a verdict that is flawed because it contains contradictory conclusions. This means that the jury may find that an element exists and does not exist at the same time. For example, a defendant may be acquitted of one crime but convicted of another crime that depends on the commission of the first crime.

One example of a legally inconsistent verdict is when a jury finds a defendant guilty of murder but also finds that the defendant acted in self-defense. This is legally inconsistent because if the defendant acted in self-defense, then they cannot be guilty of murder.

Another example is when a defendant is acquitted of a crime but convicted of a lesser included offense. For instance, if a defendant is charged with first-degree murder but is acquitted of that charge, but then convicted of second-degree murder, this is legally inconsistent because second-degree murder requires the same elements as first-degree murder, plus an additional element.

These examples illustrate how a legally inconsistent verdict can occur when the jury reaches contradictory conclusions. This can happen when the jury is confused about the law or the facts of the case, or when the evidence is not clear.

Tell us what's important to you
the fds reddit was a femcel hell hole analogous to redpill manosphere stuff
It’s incredibly toxic
It’s not quite as bad as manosphere stuff, but it’s close to that. They have a whole system of ranking guys and shit

let’s bring that on here. can I start ranking you guys? bulbasaur is on top cuz he has a wife and none of the rest of you pull like that
they get you in with telling you to value yourself then they start making you feel like all relationships are transactional
and that’s what’s bad for your mental health

@babycat: I guess more binary than ranking. It’s like high value man, low value man, and there’s some other stuff
@windyMagician: can you talk about it in therapy? i had a problem with only going after people who treated me poorly and therapy helped me work that out
i could see why FDS would be attractive but i was in to manosphere stuff like 10 years ago and its just soooooo bad for your mental health
