Summary

This document is a legal filing by the government arguing against a defendant's motion for a new trial. It cites legal precedent establishing a high bar for granting new trials and uses statements made by 'Juror 50' to The Daily Mail to demonstrate that the jury's deliberations were thorough, methodical, and proper. The government contends that the juror's account shows the verdict was based on evidence and not external pressures or improper considerations.
