Will the Defendant rise and face the jury!
In "To Kill a Mockingbird," there were no women on Tom Robinson's jury. The jury consisted of twelve white men.
In a typical courtroom, you will find the judge, the prosecutor, the defense attorney, the defendant, witnesses, the jury (if it's a jury trial), court staff, and spectators.
In Camera proceeding is a legal proceeding happening with the judge in private away from jury or spectators
The jury don't look at the defendant (Tom Robinson).
Tom Robinson is found guilty by the all-white jury, despite strong evidence proving his innocence. The racial prejudice of the jury members leads to an unjust verdict.
In "To Kill a Mockingbird," the character Atticus Finch defended Tom Robinson in court. The jury members who were convinced by the evidence and testimonies in favor of Tom Robinson's innocence included some unnamed members who were swayed by Atticus's arguments and the truthfulness of the defense. Ultimately, despite their efforts, the jury found Tom Robinson guilty due to the prevailing racial prejudice in the community.
Atticus told Jem that the jury was made up of all white men. This was surprising because Tom Robinson, a black man, was on trial, and having an all-white jury could potentially affect the outcome of the case.
Scout can tell when a jury has found a defendant guilty if the jury foreman announces the verdict in court in front of everyone present, including the defendant, lawyers, judge, and spectators. The judge will then typically set a date for sentencing.
In a jury trial, the jury makes decisions of fact, and the judge makes decisions on the law. Neither has any input on the others' decisions.
NONE Yes there were! It's just that the number of women was irrelevent and insignificant to the events that were taking place, so it wasn't counted! ~Atticus specifically said there were no woman allowed in the jury. So the answer is NONE.
Jem is devastated and disillusioned by the unjust guilty verdict in Tom Robinson's trial. He struggles to understand how the jury could have reached such a decision despite the overwhelming evidence of Tom's innocence.
