Juror No. 50 said, “no.” /d. The Court concluded: “Other than what I have asked you, do you have any reason to think that you can’t be fair and impartial here?” /d. Juror No. 50 responded, “I do not.” Id. The Court inquired whether the parties had any follow-up questions. Because Juror No. 50 denied any bias or inability to be fair and impartial, and because his answers to the questionnaire did not raise any red flags about his ability to serve as a fair and impartial juror in a case involving alleged sexual assault and sexual abuse, Ms. Maxwell’s attorneys did not propose any follow-up questions.
