Influência da mídia nos casos de grande repercussão de competência do tribunal do júri e a violação ao princípio da presunção de inocência

Abstract

The presumption of innocence is a fundamental right and guarantee, established as a stone clause, so important, that it guarantees that no one will be found guilty until the condemnation of the condemnatory criminal sentence. Notwithstanding the aforementioned constitutional provision, the media, the main means of disseminating and spreading information today, often goes beyond the limits of the presumption of innocence, condemning suspects or defendants even before the courts. In view of the reliability of the Brazilian population in the media, the power is attributed to the media to create and control profitable narratives, based on chaos. In the sphere of crimes against life, the jurisdiction for judgment lies with the Jury Tribunal, known as the people's court precisely because it guarantees a trial by society members in place of the judge, containing state arbitrariness. In this research, we seek, therefore, to analyze how the media influence and consequent violations of the principle of presumption of innocence on the part of the media, when it comes to crimes of great repercussion, within the jurisdiction of the Jury Court
