I don't think we have to completely eliminate the Jury system. We really do need to do better at presenting scientific evidence in a trial, in a way that makes more sense to a jury than the "duelling experts" we now have. P'raps a court-appointed party to analyze the evidence, and present reasonable conclusions along with the a summary of the evidence supporting such conclusions. Too many juries were convinced that physical blows could cause cancer. Read "Galileo's Revenge: Junk Science in the Courtroom" for more instances where the process has gone mad...
