Summary

This document is page 20 of a court order filed on April 1, 2022, in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The text details the Court's analysis of 'Juror 50,' specifically addressing whether the juror deliberately concealed a history of sexual abuse by a stepbrother when answering questionnaire questions 48 and 49. The Court concludes that the juror's inconsistent answers were due to skimming the questionnaire and a personal definition of 'family' that excluded the stepbrother, ultimately finding the juror's explanations reasonable and credible.
