From Amy Coveno:

Regarding the jury question... on Page 12 of the jury instructions, under the second-degree murder charge, it says the jurors can decide whether the defendant "consciously disregarded" the risk.

sounds like the jury is getting close to a guilty verdict....just a guess on my part.

Sounds like there was one or more jurors who weren't sure how to interpret "consciously disregarded" the risk and the other jurors weren't able to explain it to him/her/them.

It sounds to me like they are looking at some action by AM and he knew of/was aware of the risk involved with his action, and yet he took the action anyway.

If the juror(s) who needed explanation can resolve this issue, then I do think the jury is close to a decision.

This makes me so mad. I can’t believe they can’t force him to be there.

Got Court TV on and they're on a long commercial break. Arghh!

I'm hopeful they got it right. A fast verdict is usually good news for the prosecution, I think.

The courtroom is filled with people awaiting for the jury to arrive. #HarmonyMontgomery’s mother is now sitting with Harmony’s foster mother. The two are locked in arms. Members of the Manchester PD who worked this case are also here. #AdamMontgomery

I’m pretty sure most juries could hate this guy into a guilty verdict. I’m just fired up he won’t have to be there. They better force him to attend sentencing.

Guilty!

No surprise. Good riddance
