The tricky bit about jury nullification is that you must hide your knowledge of jury nullification from the DA in order to get on the jury. And if you lie in order to do so, then you can just be thrown off the jury and replaced with an alternate.

True, some jurisdictions will even charge you if you lie during selection. Some jurisdictions don't ask about it though.
