       Woe unto you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge.

—- Luke 11:52

       The Supreme Court, of the corporate United states, hands down Sparf v. United states: “[I]t is the duty of the jury, in criminal cases, to receive the law from the court, and to apply it as given by the court.”  The Opinion of the Court goes on to claim that the instructions to the Jury by John Jay, Chief Justice of the united States, Georgia v. Brailsford that “juries are best judges of facts, it is, on the other hand, presumable that the courts are the best judges of the law.  But still both objects are lawfully within your power of decision,” is fictitious.
