Explain how a juror's bias could affect the outcome of a case.

A jurors bias can affect the outcome of a case because if any personal interference causes them to think a certain group of people are inherently negative or positive, this may sway them to vote a certain way without relative reason.

In order to hear a case, one requirement is that a juror is free of bias. Bias is having an opinion about a case or issues beforehand. This could influence whether the juror believes the defendant to be guilty or innocent before hearing all of the facts. This can affect the outcome of a case because a juror may not have an open mind about the case and may have "made up their mind" before hearing the details. For this reason, potential jurors with previous knowledge about a case or those who are related to someone involved in the case are not chosen to serve on that particular jury.
