Jurors in the Roger Stone trial spent more than five hours today ensconced in the D.C. federal courthouse without reaching a verdict

Jurors in the Roger Stone trial spent more than five hours Thursday ensconced in the Washington, D.C., federal courthouse without reaching a verdict.

As the jury deliberated Thursday, Stone and his lawyers huddled in a private office and were occasionally spotted pacing in the hallways outside Jackson’s courtroom. The problem jurors seemed to be having was that Stone didn’t mention Credico by name at the September 2017 House hearing. Stone declined to name his contact, but said he’d consult with the person and see if he would permit his name to be shared with the committee. The next month, Stone’s lawyers sent the panel a letter identifying Credico as the intermediary. But prosecutors have said Stone actually had another go-between with WikiLeaks: conservative author and conspiracy buff Jerome Corsi.

The second note zeroed in on the count’s language, prompting Jackson to acknowledge that the charge seemed to combine the allegation of specifying a single intermediary and identifying that intermediary as Credico.Just before 4 p.m., Jackson called in the jurors and essentially repeated her jury instructions on that charge.

The lead judge is operating under complete bias!

There is not creepy about him.

How can this complete criminal be not responsible for his charges against him how as he intimidated these jurors

gailgirl66 Man. Here I figured he’d get 6 months. He’ll probably walk away or get 6 hours.

Sounds like the House yesterday trying to appear to have a 'impeachment hearing'. Nothing.........
