My wife is an attorney, and she (disloyal wench that she is) said that you are probably right.
She said it would depend on how the question, and his answer, were worded, but it likely would be grounds for overturning the verdict.
She wasn't sure about the other question concerning whether she would be released pending a new trial since a good case can be made for her being a flight risk.
If it works out that way, I hope that juror suffers some consequences. For one thing, he caused them to waste thousands of dollars of tax money.
