Roger Stone Alleges 1 Juror's Bias in 2019 Russia Probe Case

Summary
Roger Stone said on Sean Hannity’s podcast that a juror in his 2019 criminal case had posted anti-Trump and anti-Stone comments online, and argued that should have won him a new trial.
Stone said the judge rejected that argument and also barred what he called a reasonable defense tied to WikiLeaks and election-interference allegations in the Mueller investigation.
Stone, convicted on 7 counts including lying to Congress, witness tampering and obstruction, also recounted his FBI arrest and brief detention in Miramar, Florida, where he said cellmates shared peanut butter sandwiches with him.
During the interview, Stone said he chose to wear leg shackles at arraignment and leave through the courthouse front door so the public could see how authorities were treating him.
