From the results it can be concluded that the results support the hypothesis that mock jurors impose a harsher sentence on the unattractive defendant in the murder case negligent. Although not found to be significant for the unattractive defendant in the theft case, this result is counterintuitive to the hypothesis, however, it can be hypothesized that being attractive may be more advantageous for those on trial for a serious crime. The implications here could be the serious consequences to the defendant's life if found guilty of manslaughter, when in reality it may not be entirely their fault. In the case of the theft, however, there was no doubt in the minds of the jurors that that individual was responsible for the consequences of their crime, as he had been seen on closed circuit television. Given that the legal system is extremely complicated and complex, and with the limited knowledge that jurors have of the system, perhaps this could explain that people were more likely to impose a lesser sentence on those involved in the manslaughter case . But this may not be the only reason for this difference, since the comparison between manslaughter and unattractive theft did not produce significant results. As Baldwin and McConville (1979) pointed out, juries easily fall victim to stereotypes, manipulation, and external influences and fail in almost all of its goals, the findings found here and previous research further develop this theory. From the worrying results found, there is evidence that attractiveness has an unintended effect due to jurors' internal biases. As part of the study, participants were asked to answer short questions about whether they believed there was a criminal face and 10 of the 32 participants......half of the paper......had not committed.
