Jelani Maraj Juror Accused of Misconduct


Last November Nicki Minaj's older brother Jelani was convicted of predatory sexual assault on a child and child endangerment charges [click here if you missed that].

Now one of his jurors is being accused of misconduct...

From Newsday
The judge who is presiding over the sexual assault case against star rapper Nicki Minaj’s brother has ordered an inquiry into defense claims of juror misconduct following the Baldwin man’s conviction last year for raping his now-former stepdaughter.
Among the allegations is that the alternate juror said one juror claimed that if Nicki Minaj didn’t show up to testify, then Maraj was guilty.
The award-winning musician stayed away from the trial, but visited her brother in jail on the day after the verdict.

Jelani is facing up to life in prison at his upcoming sentencing.
