They have a verdict on the charge of De Belin anally raping the victim but can't decide on the others. Interesting.

Didn’t the last jury come to the same conclusion, if this is the case what a waste of tax payers money..

Honestly based on this trial and the previous, it sounds like its more than just one person who can't be swayed.

So what happens next if they can’t reach a verdict?

Re-trial with new evidence from Todd Greenburg and Peter Beattie?

For those of you more knowledgeable than me. Does the judge know what way they are leaning (or split is ) when they give directions such as these ?

Love the old ‘sorry love, it was an accident’ defence for sneaking one through the back door while nobody was looking.

Yeah! Thought I'd read moisturiser had been sourced and applied, so not sure how that reconciles with "soz, accidental"... unless there was general concern about dry skin and application was out of general concern and it was accidentally applied to the old kybher.

While not pretending to be an expert... I'm pretty certain the judge should not know either way (ie guilty or not guilty..).

As for the numbers - (eg 10-2 or whatever), I've got no idea tbh...

But if I read correctly from the LU post above / Kelly Fedor, an 11-1 jury can result in a resolution (verdict) of the case...

With yet another hung jury it wouldn’t be surprising if the judge dismissed the case.

there must be a clear lack of evidence.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

And so the question is now...

Now what...

Twice a unanimous verdict hasn't been reached now

A 3rd trial????

I doubt a 3rd would go ahead myself..... But have to wait for the judge to hand down their statement

 

[JamesRustle]

If it's another hung jury, does the prosecutor call it quits, or do they have a period of time to decide whether to go again?

A friend of mine wants to know if JDB can play against the Storm this weekend or not.

Wouldnt a lack of evidence lend itself to a not guilty verdict in at least one of the trials?

Isnt it more clear that in both trials as least some of the jury of both trials think he is guilty.
