A influência da mídia nos crimes de grande repercussão julgados pelo tribunal do júri brasileiro

Abstract

This article analyzes the influence of the media on jurors' decisions in the Jury Court. Initially, it addresses the historical evolution of the Jury Court in Brazil and around the world, highlighting its principles, structure and procedural rite. It then discusses the media impact on decisions, exploring hypotheses about the social pre-judgment generated by journalistic coverage. The goal is to identify how media exposure can influence the impartiality of jurors and harm the accused, especially when public opinions are formed before the trial. The analysis seeks to demonstrate the extent to which the media contributes to the construction of a prejudgment that interferes with justice.
