Juror in Ghislaine Maxwell trial intends to take the 5th at hearing

One of the jurors who convicted Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking in December intends to take the Fifth at a hearing next week regarding his role on the jury.

One of the jurors who convicted Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking in December intends to take the Fifth Amendment at a hearing next week regarding his role on the jury, according to a letter from the juror's attorney that was made public Wednesday.

"I write to inform the Court that Juror 50 will invoke his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination at the hearing," wrote Todd Spodek, a lawyer for the juror.

Spodek did not respond to a request for comment from ABC News.

U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan last week ordered Juror 50, a 35-year-old Manhattan resident, to appear in federal court on March 8 for an inquiry focused on his responses during jury screening and on his post-trial interviews, in which he revealed his alleged personal experience as a victim of childhood sexual abuse.
