Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It should be left as it is: serious crimes require unanimity. That should be left alone.

The basic reason is that no one should be left with any doubt. There should be clarity in everyone's mind exactly what the evidence showed.

I know there might be a tendency to bully someone one way or the other and that is the weakness of the jury system.
