[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are saying that to really make a statement would be for the jury to announce their verdict at the 9 hours and 29 second mark.[/quote]

I heard that on HLN.  I thought it was pretty stupid.  I think whatever verdict they come back with will seriously be plenty of drama on it's own.[/quote]

Can someone please review that old adage with me— something like a quick decision is usually means a guilty verdict or is it vice versa. Just curious. Also, has the jury asked to review any evidence ?[/quote]

I think it's more of an inverted u-shaped curve.

A super quick verdict would be a not-guilty.
A verdict in a day or two would be likely guilty (i.e. they have to go through the elements, the evidence, and then vote to find him guilty.
If the deliberations drag on for days and days, then you (as a lawyer) start thinking it is a hung jury or moving toward not-guilty b/c there are hold-outs.

So, as a prosecutor, I want to hear from a jury after a day or two.[/quote]

You're gonna hear from them in a minute or two - verdict reached.
