I'm feeling much better now. Sorry if this has been covered but I have had trouble connecting.
According to several sources, one of which is not usually pro prosecution , M.Keifer, the actual juror note is quoted as follows:

"The jury sent a handwritten note on an official question form to the judge. It said: If the jury is unable to come to a unanimous decision @ this stage, do we notify the judge of this on the form (verdict) or do we just tell the judge her instruction on the bottom P. 10 on the final jury Instruction-Penalty phase?
This leads me to believe it may have been misinterpreted and was just a request for clarification, after 40 minutes and their previous "Life Instruction" rather than a statement of deadlock. May be just some housekeeping before they really got down to business.
I am choosing to feel confident and sleep a bit more soundly tonight
