Answer to Question 1

Answer:  Bias
 Preconceived notions about the defendants guilt
 Opposition to the death penalty

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The phrase originated with the Magna Carta in England to distinguish noblemen from commoners.
Modernly, it has been defined as a jury of ones equals. Further, some state that the phrase means a jury
made up of a cross-section of the community. Keep in mind that the word peers does not appear in the
Constitution.
