GUILTY OF FIRST DEGREE MURDER**verdict watch** 3-5-2012

did Beth K. say this on InSession?

The only thing that Beth said was that the Jurors were still in the deliberations room talking, and had not left for lunch YET.

Beth & Ryan guessing that's what it was about since they haven't broken for lunch. I'd say they're probably right.

Putting evidence back into bags. I'd swear I can hear the jury deliberating. Unless its officers talking in the hallway.

Thanks for this. I agree. But that raises a legal Q, doesn't it? The defendant has the right to a speedy trial. BUT I know the DA/State reviewed whether or not to retry JY after the last trial, and they decided yes.

For a legal person, can they decide NOT to retry him (if it's a hung verdict) for now and leave it hanging like that? Because if they leave it hanging, doesn't it violate right to speedy trial? What would his status be if not acquitted AND not re-tried at this time?

The state can avoid this by not filing charges again until they are ready to try him. Since he isn't charged and there is no statute of limitations on murder, his rights wouldn't be violated. At least, with my Yahoo.com law degree I think this is how it works

Ryan just said "they're supposedly on lunch break right now....' So which is it?

And so did Vinnie after the break.

In Sessions is now reporting that the Jurors HAVE gone to lunch,

I'm wondering if there's a sceptic in the jury room that doubts clothes are missing. An inventory list would have cleared that up.

ME ME ME!! {raising hand}

The note was simply that they would break for lunch at 1 pm. This morning they requested a 12:30 lunch but that..http://twitter.com/#!/bethkaras

I can't decide if the cougher is coughing, sneezing, clearing her throat, or some combo of te above.
