text: Political leaders who had lost the support of the majority were subject to indictment and prosecution for "treason" and/or "deceiving the public" and could be easily and quickly convicted by a popular court, which was more like a ninteenth- century or early twentieth-century American local lynch mob than a contemporary American court of law, with a judge and a panel of 12 jurors; an ancient Athenian popular court consisted of a very large number of jurors, normally in the thousands (a number definitely prone to lynch-mobery) when trying a politically significant case.
