During a trial, if a juror complains to a judge that another juror has been sexually harassing her/him either inside or outside of the courtroom, can the judge hold this accused juror in contempt of court?
I have been searching on the Internet for an incident such as this one but have not found one yet. I would like to know whether the judge had held him/her in contempt of court, or if the judge had simply replaced him/her with an alternate juror, or if the judge had to declare a mistrial so a new jury would be selected to hear the case.
