One legal right available to criminal defendants but not to civil defendants is the right to a jury trial in certain cases. In criminal cases, defendants have the constitutional right to be tried by a jury of their peers, which is a safeguard against potential government overreach. This right is not universally applicable in civil cases, where trials may be conducted by a judge without a jury, depending on the jurisdiction and the nature of the case. Additionally, criminal defendants have the right against self-incrimination, allowing them to remain silent without facing legal consequences.
Some grounds might include: Jury misconduct - Jury tampering - Judicial misconduct.
No. A grand jury is a finder of fact, not a trial. You will not be found guilty based on a grand jury true bill.
Generally all felony offenses. CAUTION: Not all states indict defendants via the Grand Jury system.

Statistically, defendants have a better chance of acquittal in jury trials compared to bench trials.

Opinions on whether the defendants received a fair trial in the Boston Massacre vary. Some argue that the trial was fair because the defense was able to present evidence and witnesses, and the jury acquitted two of the defendants. Others believe the trial was biased, as it took place during a period of intense anti-British sentiment, and the defense attorneys faced hostility from the public and the jury.
