The juror said in interviews that he shared his own story with fellow jurors during deliberations and that it helped influence their decision.
An attorney for Ghislaine Maxwell has filed a motion requesting a new trial, according to a letter to US District Judge Alison Nathan filed Wednesday.
The request for a new trial comes after a member of the jury who convicted Maxwell gave post-trial interviews saying he had been sexually abused as a child. "When I shared that, they were able to sort of come around on, they were able to come around on the memory aspect of the sexual abuse," the juror said in his Reuters interview.
