Ghislaine Maxwell’s motion for a new trial makes no mention of the juror her lawyers have loudly accused of bias, court documents show.
Lawyers for Maxwell, who was convicted of five sex-trafficking charges in December, had previously argued that a juror known as Scotty David, who says he was sexually abused as a child, “corrupted” the jury selection process and tainted the trial. In a letter to Judge Alison Nathan, the defence implied that this was the basis of their request for a retrial.
