And by undercover, I mean:
...blonde dye job, fake tan, sexy wardrobe, phony name -- and began spying on jurors. She befriended one juror to root out any possible misdeeds at the trial, and for nearly eight months, they drank at bars, smoked marijuana and shared meals in her tiny Brooklyn hideaway.
Apparently it worked, because the juror she zeroed in on as a target, Jason Allo, started singing like a canary.
Among other things, the motion accuses the 33-year-old Allo of concealing that he had personal knowledge that Giuliano's son, John Giuca, ran with a rough crowd, and of defying orders to avoid news coverage once the highly publicized proceedings started. It argues that Allo "admitted the outside information he obtained about the case prejudiced him against Mr. Giuca."
In addition to mentioning the rarity of murder convictions being overturned, the article also provides some information about Mrs. Giuliano's son's conviction:
A jury deliberated only two hours before convicting Giuca of second-degree murder in 2005. He and the gunman were sentenced to 25 years to life in prison by a judge who told them that because the killing was callous, "my sentence will be callous."[emphasis added]
Yeah, I somehow don't think that one's going to be overturned, regardless of what Mr. Allo offered up.
The thing that bothers me about this story is the claim by both Mr. Allo and Mrs. Giuliano that there was no physical contact. I'm just wondering how someone can be "seductive" if they never actually seduce anyone. And, well, I submit a photo for further discussion:
You're telling me vegan Vin Diesel started yapping to this supposedly "seductive" older woman because they were BFF and nothing more? Just pals who share joints, tabs at bars, and the cozy confines of small Brooklyn apartments? Really?
Definitely a Thing That Makes You Go Hmmm...
