a. jurors are less likely to return guilty verdicts for ‘other-race’ defendants because they don’t want to appear biased.
b. jurors are more likely to return guilty verdicts for ‘other-race’ defendants than for defendants of their own race.
c. mixed-race juries produce the most accurate verdicts as they balance out any potential biases.
d. jurors are more likely to convict ‘other-race’ defendants, especially when racial issues are discussed during trial.
e. jurors are always less likely to convict ‘other-race’ defendants due to the leniency bias.
