Summary
Page 45 of a legal filing (Document 613) from the Ghislaine Maxwell trial (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE), filed in February 2022. The text presents a legal argument regarding 'Inferred Bias' and 'Actual Bias' in jurors, citing the precedent *Torres*. The defense argues that, similar to *Torres*, a juror in the current case (implied to be the Maxwell trial) was subject to conduct closely approximating that of the defendant, creating a risk of unconscious bias.
