under british and australian laws ajury in a criminal case has no access to information about the defendant's past criminal record.this projects the person who being accused of the crime. some layers have suggested that this practice should be changed and thata jury should be given all the past facts before they reach their decision about the case. do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer.
