Recall that only when Renard showed Nick the surveillance video did he know he killed the guy. No excuse, but he was out of his mind at the time. Criminally insane.
Juliette on the other hand clearly remembers all she did. She "likes who she is" and likes the vile acts she does. No insanity. All premeditated. Eve is Juliette and clearly remembers all those vile acts. She is even more wooden now and does not express pride in her deeds nor remorse for those deeds. When Meisner says "Eve Kill!" She just waits for who and where then kills without any thought. Just a robot. Nothing human about her, but that is no excuse.
Juliette/Hexenette/Eve torched the trailer and set up all the murders. She is a guilty felon.

Hello New Guy-
I'm no lawyer here, but if I were a juror at Nick's trial, I wouldn't believe the old "well I blacked out so I don't remember anything." People have blacked out from intoxication while behind the wheel of a car and killed innocents. They don't get off with temporary insanity, they get convicted of motor vehicular homicide and sentenced to prison. In Nick's case it was even worse. If a jury had seen that tape (which I think was conveniently destroyed), they would have convicted Nick. There was clear intent there. Nick went after the man and killed him.
Juliette, on the other hand, might get off with temporary insanity. Nick dumped her, the scoobies dumped her, Nick puts her in jail, Adalind turns up, pregnant with Nick's kid. Juliette, enraged, tries to attack Adalind and Nick intervenes. Juliette torches the trailer. The rage Juliette experienced could actually constitute temporary insanity. She could be completely lucid and remember everything. However, during those periods of rage, Juliette could defend herself, stating her rage made her mentally ill, and thus unable to control herself.
She might not win, but there's a chance. In Nick's case, there would be zero chance.
If I were a juror on those trials I would vote guilty to both of them. Nick's green spit zombie would not move me. Juliette's cry baby "a hexenbiest spirit made me do it." Would fall flat after Monroe's testimony and multiple witnesses confirm Hexenette "likes who she is."
We see this differently. IMO, Nick was out of his mind. He did not know who he was, where he was or what he was doing. He just would not be able to prove it, so Renard destroyed the evidence and talked Nick out of confession. Juliette was fully cognizant of what she did. She dreamed of murdering Rosalee, attempted to murder Adalind and Monroe. She committed arson and called Nick to see what she had done. She voluntarily participated in the murders of Kelly and her neighbors. So after testimony from Nick, the relatives and friends of the neighbors and graphic evidence will her whine move a jury? The things the Scoobies did were logical defensive reactions to a confrontational bestial psychopath. Who in their right mind would want to be around someone who on at any moment could feel the need to rip out your throat or explode your brain. Hexenette was a menace to society and she liked it.
