If there is that much stress and anxiety for some jury members, then I would think we should get a verdict soon, maybe on Monday after the weekend.

If it is a hung jury, then I do believe that the prosecution will try NM again. They seem highly committed to getting a conviction of NM in this case, IMO.

Also, if just one or two jurors are holding differing views from the majority and are highly stressed as the media is reporting, then the time away (a weekend) may help them stand firm in their views or it may have the opposite effect, i.e. they may decide to just go with the others to reduce their anxiety. I guess we'll know soon.

The jury that will decide the fate of Nima Momeni reconvened Monday afternoon for the seventh day of deliberations on his trial for the murder of tech executive Bob Lee in April of 2023.

...

"The fact that they're coming back at 1:30, I suspect they wanted to give all of the fellow jury members time to really solidify their decisions and sleep on it. I don't know if that's going to be a verdict of guilty, an acquittal [or] a hung jury, but I suspect they're going to come back with something on Monday."

Today is Day 7 of jury deliberations for Nima Momeni, the accused killer of tech mogul Bob Lee. The only people I've seen waiting in the courthouse are reporters and Momeni's mom (wearing white jacket). Jurors looked tense and serious when they entered the deliberation room.

For the first time today, San Francisco prosecutors of the Bob Lee / Nima Momeni case just entered the courtroom. They never answer questions from reporters about what’s happening. Jurors are still deliberating behind closed doors trying to reach a verdict.

Nima Momeni’s mother began texting on her phone as soon as the court announced that a verdict has been reached. We will all find out tomorrow morning if jurors decided her son is guilty of murdering Bob Lee.

Can a verdict include hung?

No. The jury has reached a verdict. They are not hung. Hung jury means they cannot agree on a verdict.

 

[Marysmith]

Wow! They worked so hard!

 

[DropthePuck]

I think it's absolutely insane to make Bob Lee's family wait overnight to hear the verdict. This has been the loooongest, most drawn out trial I think I've ever followed.

Not even believable, jmo.
