Three men were arrested for allegedly attempting to bribe a juror in the Brooklyn drug trial of former heavyweight boxer Goran Gogic, who faces charges of conspiring to smuggle 20 tons of cocaine from Colombia to Europe. The judge dismissed the jury just before opening statements due to the bribery attempt, and an anonymous jury will be selected when the trial resumes after a 30-day break. Prosecutors revealed that the men may have had inside information about the jury, and Gogic, if convicted, could face a sentence of 10 years to life in prison. The bribery scheme allegedly involved offers of $50,000 to $100,000 to secure a not guilty verdict.
