Jury Clock:
I have reviewed all my notes to try to determine how many hours the jury has been deliberating. I cannot come up with an exact figure, because this jury has not "buzzed" each time they have started and stopped. All times are as close as I can possibly come. This page will be updated at the end of each day.
May 22nd, 2013 (Day 7 of trial)
Recap: On this day we had two defense witnesses and all of closing arguments. While Judge Kennedy was reading jury instructions, a sound on my computer went off. I quickly left the courtroom with my laptop. I did not re-enter
the courtroom until Judge Kennedy had left the bench. I read one news
report of that day that indicated the jurors had deliberated 20 minutes
before going home. So, on the day of closings, we have 20 minutes.
Total: 20 minutes
