Summary
This is page 4 of a legal filing (Document 649) from the Law Offices of Bobbi C. Sternheim, filed on March 15, 2022, in the case of United States v. Maxwell. The text argues that 'Juror 50' demonstrated bias by lying on a questionnaire about his own history of sexual abuse, which the defense argues closely paralleled the abuse described by victims at the trial. The filing highlights that the juror was abused by a familiar person (his stepbrother), mirroring the allegations against Epstein and Maxwell, and argues he would have been struck for cause had he been honest.

Key Quotes (3)
"In determining whether Juror 50 was biased, the Court should consider several factors, including '[1] the similarity between the juror’s experiences and important facts presented at trial, [2] the scope and severity of the juror’s dishonesty, and [3] the juror’s motive for lying.'"Source
