A mídia e o Tribunal do Júri: Uma análise à luz dos princípios da presunção de inocência e da imparcialidade.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the influence of the media on the institution of the Jury Court, as well as its historical aspects, guiding principles and organization. Based on constitutional principles, such as the presumption of innocence and the right to a broad defense, it seeks to highlight possible traces of subjectivity in decision-making, which can be potentially intensified by the media, as it influences public opinion formation and creates a distorted view of the legal system. In light of this objective, case law from Higher Courts and real cases of significant repercussions were researched and analyzed. Thus, to conduct the study, a deductive method was employed through bibliographic and scientific materials.
