An appeals court has tossed a 2014 Manhattan murder conviction because one of the jurors failed to reveal she’d applied for a job as a Manhattan prosecutor just before the trial.

The Appellate Division in Manhattan unanimously agreed to vacate Equan Southall’s conviction and sentence, citing the “implied bias” toward the prosecution by the unnamed juror–who eventually got the job and works in the trial division under Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance.

Southall, who was convicted in April 2014 of the 2011 stabbing murder of gal pal Camila Guzman, had been serving 23 years to life behind bars.

The juror, who was hired in Sept. 2014, had been working in private practice when she applied for a job as a Manhattan ADA two days before she was sworn in.

Justice Peter Tom wrote in the decision that while the juror didn’t lie during questioning, she should have known to disclose that she’d just applied for a job as a prosecutor.

“Even if the juror was sincerely convinced that she would be a fair juror, it was problematic for her to be one of the triers of fact in an action brought by her prospective employer,” he wrote.

“We are reviewing the decision in consideration of seeking leave to appeal,” said a spokeswoman with the Manhattan District Attorneys office.
