Análise da influência da mídia no tribunal do júri

Abstract

The present work proposes to carry out an analysis regarding the influence of the media on the Jury Court in Brazilian legislation. Initially, a historical approach will be carried out, which will portray the emergence and evolution of the Jury Court, also lending itself to the specific principiological analysis that guides this court, comprising the principles of fullness of defense, secrecy of votes and sovereignty of verdicts, in addition to the composition and structure of the jury's competence processes. In the process of scientific investigation, it is intended to address how the structure and constitution of the Jury Court is formed as a democratic means of conflict resolution (insofar as it is carried out through citizen participation in the trials in which it is competent). In addition to providing a constitutional guarantee to the defendant, who can only be judged by his peers, the Jury also reveals itself as a democratic tool, which makes the act of judging accessible to any of the people, ensuring equity and parity to the system. In addition, the scope of the means of disseminating advertising information about the community and its correspondence within the scope of the Jury Court and with the basic principles of criminal procedure (due process flaw) is researched. In order to do so, criticism of the institute is pointed out and its application in cases that deal with intentional crimes against life, highlighting the institute of criminal media populism and the relationships, influences and limits of the media in the institute of the jury, especially in cases where there is social clamor inserted in a modern penal rationality.
