Woman charged with juror intimidation after photographing jurors in Plymouth

Dawn Light has been formally accused of photographing jurors outside the Plymouth courthouse, an act that violates a standing court order prohibiting any visual documentation of jurors in public spaces. The allegation, filed by the court clerk’s office, asserts that Light was observed taking pictures of individuals who had recently served on a jury panel, a practice intended to safeguard juror anonymity and the integrity of the judicial process.

Court officials indicated that the prohibition on photographing jurors is codified in local court rules and is enforced to prevent potential intimidation or undue influence on jurors after deliberations. If the accusation is substantiated, Light could face contempt of court charges, fines, or other sanctions prescribed by state law. The matter is currently under investigation, and a hearing is scheduled to determine the appropriate legal response.
