Jurors sent home for today....
WRAL NEWS in NC ‏@wral 1min
Jurors sent home for the day in Raven #AbaroaTrial. They deliberated for more than 5 hours without a verdict. They continue 9:30a Friday.
Seems like Keith Morrison and all of the true crime reporters on Dateline and 20/20 say a quick verdict is usually guilty and the longer a jury stays out the higher the chance of a not guilty verdict. 5 hours for deliberating so far is minimal. I am happy they appear to be thorough as it's a heavy responsibility.
In my honest opinion, their days are too short--begin at 9:30, break, 90 minutes for lunch, break, gone at 5pm. When you do the math, court is not in session nor are deliberations going for much time at all. Again, I loved Judge B. Perry in the CA trial, he started on time, shortened up the lunches and stayed late, even offered to go into the nighttime hours and weekends for both testimony and deliberations if needed. That's the way it should be done unless the jurors and main players just aren't up to it mentally and physically.
ok found the weird video of Raven: http://www.wral.com/news/local/video/12445997/#/vid12445997
I think we should set him up with Jodi. They'd make a fine couple!

Yep, I am not concerned. Maybe tomorrow I will lol.
RE: Hours. Considering the fact that jurors are losing income -sometimes-, setting their lives aside and possibly not there just cuz it's so fun, I don't mind them having short hours.
Yea, but considering they are losing income that makes working longer hours more important the way I look at it.
Anyhow, I'm not worried yet either. Tomorrow afternoon at this time, if there still isn't a verdict, I'll start worrying.
I'll keep up the prayers, and see you guys in the AM.
Got home hoping for a verdict. Not so. See ya in the AM.

#AbaroaTrial They also want video following a phone call with police, Raven Abaroa's clothing, and a lead detective's notes

On the 911 Call (NC Wanted) at around the 3:55 mark, the operator asks Raven "what time did she go" and he responded "around 8". To me this is huge and from what I can find, it is never mentioned !!!

Praying for Justice for Janet.
Trying to find things to do to occupy my mind while waiting for a verdict. Feel like I've been holding my breathe with the waiting.
Worse court hours were in AZ during the Arias trial-- no court at all on one day of the week. The jury asked about staying later or on the weekends -- as did one jury in Wake County -- the juries were told the same thing in both counties -- they were not budgeted for extra hours, and of course a fair amount of security is involved as well as that involving transporting the defendant back & forth, so it could not be done in either location. I'm sure that's what we have here.
Florida must have had more bucks in their courtroom kitty. Pity.
