I recently talked with Liz Dye of ‘Law and Chaos’ about the damages verdict in the E. Jean Carroll verdict, and how jurors think and process in trials generally.

Warning: this conversation includes frank discussions of lawyers’ own confirmation bias and pretending to have psychic powers that they don’t actually have.

Also . . . was that verdict even really that big? Does it “prove” that “the jury punished the defendant for his obnoxious behavior in court”? No and no, respectively. Find out why.
