What hypothesis suggests that when the evidence is uncertain, jurors are "liberated" from the constraints imposed by the law and therefore feel free to take legally irrelevant factors into consideration?

Answer: The correct answer is : liberation hypothesis

Explanation: An explanation for research findings suggesting legally irrelevant factors (eg, the race or gender of the defendant and victim, the bx of the victim at the time of the crime) come into play primarily in cases where the evidence is ambiguous and the outcome is therefore less predictable.
