Juror 6
Oh, don't mind me, my dears! I'll just be getting on with my knitting. Must finish these mitts for my grandson.

An unnamed elderly woman was juror number six in the trial of Magnus McGilded for the murder of Mason Milverton on an omnibus. She was fond of knitting and would regularly visit McGilded Park, a public park on land donated by McGilded himself, located near her home.

As part of McGilded's jury.

During the initial testimonies of the trial, number six's fellow jurors submitted a guilty verdict, but she held out due to McGilded's reputation as a generous philanthropist. However, prosecutor Barok van Zieks revealed to her that McGilded obtained his wealth from exploitative lending, detailed in a debtors' ledger. This convinced her to submit the last guilty verdict, based on Beppo's testimony about seeing the victim being stabbed while collapsed on the omnibus floor.

However, during the summation examination, defense attorney Ryunosuke Naruhodo pointed out a contradiction between Beppo's account and that of passenger Bruce Fairplay, who claimed that McGilded had stabbed Milverton in his seat. One of these instances of stabbing had to be impossible, as Milverton had only been stabbed a single time. This convinced number six to reverse her decision, wanting the matter to be resolved. Later, she watched as Naruhodo found another contradiction: Fairplay claimed that he had seen McGilded's bloodstained hands, but his gloves from that time were only stained on one hand.

Near the end of the trial, Gina Lestrade claimed that she had not heard anyone other than McGilded enter the omnibus. This seemed impossible, and juror number six reversed her verdict to guilty. Naruhodo proposed that Milverton had fallen through the skylight on the roof, implying that he had been killed on the roof deck. The skylight hatch was opened, revealing a bloodstain that seemingly corroborated Naruhodo's assertion. However, van Zieks claimed that the omnibus had somehow been tampered with, as the bloodstain had not been there during Scotland Yard's investigation. Nonetheless, it eventually became clear that van Zieks was unable to substantiate his claims about evidence tampering, and, as such, the judge pronounced a not guilty verdict without the jury.

Personality[]

During the trial, the elderly juror was generally quieter than her fellow jurors. However, she occasionally betrayed signs of a more violent disposition, sometimes joining a fellow juror in his threats. She was more willing to believe in McGilded than the others, despite having her own reasons for suspecting that he was the real culprit. For example, she cited Beppo's testimony even though she had seemingly been convinced by the debtors' ledger. Nonetheless, she was embarrassed that she had ever doubted McGilded whenever it looked like he was innocent after all.
