Read the record, not the rhetoric. A victim-first field guide to how criminal jury trials actually work — from jury selection to verdict.
Twelve strangers decide the most consequential questions in American life — and almost nobody outside the courtroom knows how the game is actually played.
Jury Chess walks the whole board in plain language: jury selection, opening statements, the rules of evidence, expert witnesses, cross-examination, fitness to proceed, closing arguments, and the instructions that shape every verdict. Seventeen chapters. Every legal claim sourced and verified. No speculation, no rhetoric — just how it works.
Written to the Neural Edge standard: victim-first, forensically rigorous. The book ends where the trial ends — at the verdict.
