A INFLUÊNCIA DA MÍDIA NO TRIBUNAL DO JÚRI: ANÁLISE CRÍTICA DA ÍNTIMA CONVICÇÃO

Abstract

This paper critically analyzes the media's influence on jury trials in Brazil, focusing on the Isabella Nardoni case. It examines the applicable constitutional and procedural criminal principles, such as the presumption of innocence, the right to a full defense, and intimate conviction, highlighting conflicts arising from media exposure. The research shows that excessive press coverage can compromise juror impartiality, leading to verdicts influenced by preconceived public opinions disseminated through the media. Using exploratory and qualitative methodology, the study addresses the impact of sensationalist journalism on fundamental rights and the effectiveness of due legal process, offering reflections on the ethical limits of press freedom within the judicial context
