Judge Alison Nathan urged Ghislaine Maxwell jurors to work longer hours, citing an 'astronomical spike' in COVID cases in New York City.
NEW YORK -- The judge presiding over the sex trafficking trial of Ghislaine Maxwell cited an"astronomical spike" in the number of coronavirus cases in New York City as she explained Tuesday why she was urging jurors to work longer hours.
"We now face a high and escalating risk that jurors and trial participants may need to quarantine," Nathan told lawyers."We are simply in a different place regarding the pandemic than we were a week ago." "We would object to trying to urge them to stay later if they are not asking to do so and aren't expressing any difficulty in proceeding with the deliberations that they are currently undertaking," Menninger said.
