1 Q. And as best as you can recall and with as much precision as
2 you can muster, what exactly did Ms. Trzaskoma say to you as
3 you were headed to 52 Duane?
4 A. So the three of us were together and Ms. Trzaskoma said
5 something to me along these lines: You know, I'm starting to
6 wonder in light of the juror note whether this Juror No. 1
7 could be the same person as this suspended lawyer.
8 And Ms. Edelstein said, "Well, what did she say in
9 voir dire?" And Theresa reminded us of the stay at home wife
10 and the education and the other aspects of the voir dire and
11 she reminded us that this person had some kind of a personal
12 injury suit in the Bronx. And at that point, I think it was
13 Ms. Edelstein, but I may have been the person who said it, one
14 of us said well, that makes perfect sense. That explains why
15 she's making references to these concepts. They must have been
16 at issue in her case, and here I'm having a little bit of a
17 hard time separating what I thought and what was said, but I
18 either thought or said, well, you know, Judge Pauley will set
19 her straight in the jury charge and, you know, it's sort of
20 just a silly note.
21 I thought that it all made sense because of the
22 personal injury suit and that no lawyer would be so dumb as to
23 think that vicarious liability or respondeat superior had any
24 place in a criminal case.
25 So then, so back to the conversation, and again I got
