A juror from Paul Manafort’s financial crimes trial said Wednesday that there was one holdout who prevented the former Trump campaign manager from being convicted on all 18 counts.

Juror Paula Duncan spoke to Fox News one day after the jury returned guilty verdicts against Manafort on eight financial crime counts and deadlocked on 10 others.

“It was one person who kept the verdict from being guilty on all 18 counts,” Duncan, 52, told the network.

The identities of the other jurors have not been revealed.

Duncan said that although she is an avid supporter of President Trump and thinks the special counsel investigation is a “witch hunt to try to find Russian collusion,” she voted to convict Manafort.

“Finding Mr. Manafort guilty was hard for me, I wanted him to be innocent, I really wanted him to be innocent, but he wasn’t,” Duncan said.

“That’s the part of a juror, you have to have due diligence and deliberate and look at the evidence and come up with an informed and intelligent decision, which I did.”
