There is an article here asking, “What's happening in the Libby Trial?”
The writer, a Washington DC lawyer, gives thoughts on the long jury deliberations in the Libby trial.
One thing, not mentioned in the article, is one more reason for the lengthy deliberations by the 11-person jury. One person was dismissed by the judge.
I think that the more thoughtfulness and study they put into their work, as they deliberate according to the 127 page jury instructions given to them by the judge, the better chance some of them will have to write a marketable book about the trial.
Otherwise, the longer they take, the more obvious it becomes that they are finding a lot of reasonable doubt.
However, if book deals are uppermost in their minds, they could very well be swayed by the popular assumption, championed by the liberal media, even before the trial began, that Libby is guilty.
