Honestly I am shocked that the jury is not already back with guilty verdict. A quick verdict usually is a conviction in criminal processes from what I understand but “not guilty” in a civil trial. The longer it goes the more likely traditionally that it is hung.
So… who knows. There is nothing normal about this blatantly illegal trial. I fear that whatever happens the first hot shot of a deeper division in our country will occur.
Logically the best way out of this for the jury is to hang (the verdict not the individual jurors)
Being New Yorkers, maybe they just wanted one more lunch on the city's dime.
