In a dramatic turn of events, jurors in the Karen Read trial told a judge that they are deadlocked on a murder verdict for the ex-college professor accused of killing her cop boyfriend. The twelve jurors, consisting of six men and six women, wrote a note to the judge on their fifth day of deliberations stating that they were unable to reach a unanimous decision.
This revelation comes after the jurors initially informed the judge on Friday that they were at an impasse. Despite this, the Norfolk County Superior Court Judge Beverly Cannone decided that the jury had not deliberated long enough to declare a mistrial and instructed them to continue their discussions.
The case has gripped the Boston community and has been closely followed by the media. The jury’s inability to reach a verdict adds another layer of tension to an already tense trial. As the jurors continue to deliberate, the outcome of the trial remains uncertain.
