Jury Misconduct Could Derail the Ghislaine Maxwell Verdict

The defense team for Ghislaine Maxwell announced its plans to appeal her recent sex-trafficking conviction after two jurors from the trial told reporters that they were sexually abused and discussed this with other jury members in deliberations.

In this episode of the David vs. Goliath podcast, Stan and Matt discuss how emotions move juries more than facts and how this makes jury impartiality an even bigger deal. They'll also cover some of their own courtroom experiences where questions of jury misconduct became an issue.
