5 days agoBrooklyn Worker Pleads Guilty In Jury Bribe Plot
A Staten Island restaurant worker pleaded guilty to obstructing justice for attempting to bribe a juror in Goran Gogic's Brooklyn federal trial.
Three men were arrested Monday for allegedly offering to pay $100,000 in cash to a juror at the Brooklyn drug trial of former heavyweight boxer Goran Gogic, leading a federal judge to abruptly dismiss the jury as it was about to hear opening statements. An anonymous jury will be chosen when Gogic's trial resumes after a 30-day break, said John Marzulli, a spokesperson for federal prosecutors in Brooklyn. Judge Joan Azrack scheduled a Dec. 17 conference.
