My initial thought about juries is that they are inherently more fair, as they represent the people. Change always happens in the public, which then causes people to vote a certain way, which then changes the laws. So you end up in situations where what you did is wrong by law, but you get a better outcome because of the jury, as the jury is the public, as opposed to a judge, and usually well-paid, meaning quite disconnected from the 'common man'. In the US for example judges are elected, which means they should represent the public better. So it's not as black and white.
