Everyone should have an option of a jury trial . I also believe the jury should understand that their are guide lines to each offense they should not be able to go over the guide lines each crime should have a certain amount of time and if duplicate charges they also should have guide lines so say speeding is 10 days in jail second speeding is 20 days in jail . It shouldn't be different one person goes to jail for a year and another goes for 10 days . That is how it is right now.
