A juror was dismissed Monday after reporting that a woman dropped a bag of $120,000 in cash at her home and offered her more money if she would vote to acquit seven people charged with stealing more than $40 million from a program meant to feed children during the pandemic. “This is completely beyond the pale,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Thompson said in court on Monday. The 23-year-old juror said she immediately turned over the bag of cash to police.
40k is only a years salary for me so idk why they thought that would be anywhere near enough.
This 20k would have really helped me out, but alas, morals.

120k is barely a down payment on a Ferrari.

Yeah, but you said going to the Ferrari dealer, not going to Craigslist.

A Ferrari dealer is not like a Toyota dealer. They are like 99% new or special order, and the other 1% that is used is all current model year with very low miles, or older but very rare and expensive.
The odds of getting a Ferrari for $120k from a Ferrari dealer is probably slimmer than your chances of being given the bag with $120k to begin with.

How do they expect to sway a juror for only $5k?
