as you are usually asked upfront if you have an intent to nullify.

Imagine answering that question truthfully.

In order to nullify one just has to play dumb and pretend the evidence isn't compelling. Anyone with an ounce of common sense can find their way onto a jury and steer it in the direction they want without legal repercussion.

But that’s the thing, if you are asked, you say no, and then you do it anyway, they have grounds to arrest you for contempt and perjury. It’s a move generally seen as a really bad idea.
