describing an Allen charge as “supplemental jury instructions that urge deadlocked juries to forego their differences in order to reach a unanimous verdict” (quoting Boyd v. Scott, 45 F.3d 876, 878 n.1 (5th Cir. 1994) (per curiam))
“Although such knowledge [of the victim] may be the source of an existing bias, ‘the mere fact that a juror knows, or -39- is a neighbor, or an intimate acquaintance of, and on friendly relations with, one of the parties to a suit, is not sufficient basis for disqualification.’”
