John is a prospective juror in a capital murder trial where the defendant, Mark, is facing the death penalty if convicted. During the voir dire process, the prosecutor and the defense attorney question John to determine his suitability for serving on a jury that may be required to impose the death penalty. The prosecutor asks John about his views on the death penalty. John responds that he has strong moral and religious objections to the death penalty and believes that it is always wrong, regardless of the circumstances. He explains that his beliefs are deeply held and that he could never, under any circumstances, vote to impose the death penalty.
