This document is page 17 of a court order regarding the validity of the trial verdict in United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell, specifically addressing 'Juror 50'. The Court credits Juror 50's testimony that he failed to disclose his own history of sexual abuse on the jury questionnaire because he was distracted by a recent breakup, felt rushed by the environment, and did not believe he would be selected. The text argues that his failure to disclose was not intentional deceit but a result of lack of focus and the specific wording of the charges.
