Nobody has ever accused him of being an old hippie or anarchist. His official duties include appointments on his chamber's Judiciary Committee, the Governmental Affairs Committee, the Committee on Rules and Administration, and the Select Committee on Intelligence, as well as about a dozen subcommittees. His demeanor is serious, sober and focused. So why does Durbin want juries to follow their own conscience and ignore federal law? - Rick
