Rezko trial: What we know

— Two weeks ago: jurors in Tony Rezko’s trial asked for a transcript of witness Michael Winter’s testimony. The judge said they couldn’t have it — or anyone’s transcript testimony.

— Last week, jurors indicated in a note they would stay late on two nights to help “conclude our decision.” We took that to mean a decision was imminent.
Here we are a week later.

— This week: Jurors on Monday say they cannot agree “on one count.” They’re brought in at about 2:30 p.m. and told to keep deliberating. We think a decision is imminent.

Thanks for starting the thread. WLS am is covering it live. They say expect a reading is 30 minutes or less. 24 counts.

I’m curious about the makeup of the jury. Are there any Obama supporters there to protect him?

Did the judge offer a reason as to why he would not release the court transcript of Michael Winter?

That sounds very odd...

Good. Now Rezko will be motivated to talk in return for a lighter sentence.
