It's already being appealed. Jurors are claiming fraud.

What type of fraud are the jurors claiming? That someone lied about the sentence that THEY handed down? or that the case shouldn't be appealed?

Were they told about the immunity deal? They certainly should be so that they can judge the veracity and trustworthiness of the witness.

They were given improper instructions on the need for unanimity in voting for conviction.
They were also misquoted the relevant law.
