Ghislaine Maxwell
will not be granted a new trial. At the end of 2021, a jury convicted the Jeffrey Epstein associate on five charges related to sex-trafficking and facilitating the financier’s sexual abuse. Soon afterwards, began telling news outlets about how his own experience of abuse figured into the deliberations. The man, identified as Juror 50 in court documents and as in those interviews, said that when fellow jurors were evaluating testimony about Epstein’s abuse and the ways in which Maxwell aided it, he weighed in with an account of how his memory of abuse shifted over time.
In the process of these interviews, David also revealed that he had given inaccurate answers in parts of his jury questionnaire. He told thein a video interview, for instance, that he had been allowed to serve on the jury because prospective jurors weren’t asked about any history of abuse, but appeared to learn in that same interview that they had in fact been asked.
Hadn't it been for Juror 50 challenging Elizabeth Loftus's expert evidence when other jurors had doubts about some of the witnesses' testimony, who is to say that the Jury might not have decided that the case hadn't been proven beyond reasonable doubt?
When an association representing 40,000 US criminal defense lawyers advised that there should be a re-trial on the basis of the rules, is it possible that a Judge's personal opinion could be perverse? Why knowingly declare it before the juror's latest revelations are aired?
Unfair decision. Juror 50 falsely answered THREE crucial but straightforward questions (while being able to answer other parts) which suggests lack of integrity. Yet the judge wrote some nonsensical explanation; she claims she still naively believes he's honest GhislaineMaxwell
