Yes. it's the Jury's job to enforce the law, not to make it or pass judgement on that law. "Does this case meet the standard set out for the death penalty - yes or no?" is basically what the Jurors must decide, not "Does this person 'deserve' to die in your opinion". Next time you have 20 minutes, I think you might find this video worthwhile: I hope that I could have a quarter of Hector Black's grace in his situation.I'm on the fence and, shamefully, tend to flip flop depending on the circumstance.
