Description
INTRODUCTION Understanding the use of the Confrontation Clause in criminal trials requires appreciating the role of the jurors. Their role is to reconstruct a historical event from the evidence presented by the parties. The jurors have been called upon to participate in the trial because the parties disagree about what happened. The purpose of the trial is to afford each side an opportunity to persuade the jurors to accept its version of what occurred. The jurors' reconstruction of what happened will determine whether the accused is held accountable or is exonerated.
