Original Note:
NNN. OP’s statement is not jury tampering. One element of the crime is “ he communicates with a juror in such action or proceeding.” To be guilty, OP would have to contact a juror. No jury has been sat yet. Thus, OP cannot have committed jury tampering. https://casetext.com/statute/consolidated-laws-of-new-york/chapter-penal/part-3-specific-offenses/title-l-offenses-against-public-administration/article-215-other-offenses-relating-to-judicial-and-other-proceedings/section-21525-tampering-with-a-juror-in-the-first-degree
