Hung jury

Superior Court Judge Richard D. Bonor ruled a mistrial around 12:30 p.m. Friday after jurors told him they were deadlocked 9-3 and it hadn't changed since yesterday afternoon.

The victim's family members said the assistant district attorney told them the state could possibly re-try the case in August or September.

The state should never have tried the Bess case in the first place, Pete !
You should mention all defense lawyers, prosecutors, magistrates, Sheriff Deputies-Detectives involved in your courtroom trials by name. Those of us from Cleveland County know how the court system works !
