Juror intimidation as well as attempts to intimidate judges in prominent cases has been a persistent issue in recent months. Thursday morning, an MSNBC reporter was arrested after allegedly following the jury bus back to the hotel where jurors were staying after deliberations. George Floyd’s nephew, Cortez Rice, has issued veiled threats to the jurors in the Kyle Rittenhouse case, with the support of Unicorn Riot, an antifa affiliated organization. “I ain’t even gonna name the people that I know that’s up in the Kenosha trial,” Rice said. “But it’s cameras in there. It’s definitely cameras up in there. There’s definitely people taking pictures of the juries and everything like that. We know what’s going on.” “so we need the same results, man.” said Rice in a video
