I hate to bring up the Ghislaine Maxwell case (most folks thought it was done)....but there's some hearing going on about one of the juriors.
So the story goes....when picking the jury, there was a questionnaire, and it kinda asked....have you any sexual abuse in your history......the person said no. Well....weeks passed, and this juror starts to talk about their personal sexual abuse as a kid to the other jurors....likely influencing them.
The fed prosecution folks came back and want them to answer more questions in a court hearing. Nope....the juror just can't do that....using their Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.
What'll happen? At the least, they will drag the person into some fed court.....giving a false testimony situation, and with evidence by other jurors likely....the person ends up with potentially five years in prison. My guess, the judge might feel sorry for the person, and just limit it to one year....getting out in eight months on good behavior.
The problem left? Do you have to redo the Maxwell case all over? My gut feeling? Yeah. This giving her lawyers all the inside parts of the case? Yeah, and it's more likely this time that she beats the prosecution on most of the charges.
All of this manufactured? Well....you just sit and wonder....what kind of idiot would do this stuff, and could a good bribe cause you to make up the abuse stuff with the jurors, even if you had to do 12 months in prison?
