does not juries make decisions individually to reach to the last verdict? So, it means that although they are sit, listen, ... beside each other, they do not consult about their verdict with each other. Is that true? If yes, they are not involved in group decision making, it is individual process of thought. Would someone plz explain this to me? thanks!

Hi @Dela,

Jurors actually convene before deciding a verdict and discuss with each other about which verdict to reach. If you've ever seen the movie "12 Angry Men," it gives a decent representation of jury deliberations (great movie, by the way, would highly recommend). Everyone gets in a room and goes through the evidence, and the jury, as a group, comes to a consensus. Thus, it's still group decision making. Hope this helps!
