Jury Discharged After Hung Verdict in Robbery Case
After seventeen hours, the jury failed to reach a verdict in the robbery trial of Fred Kelly and Marie Pancheco, indicted for robbing George Whitehead. Initially eight favored acquittal and four for conviction. Judge Donlan discharged the jury and said he would appoint a new panel, drawing jurors from his own pool next Friday. Some defendants in recent gambling raids admitted guilt in Judge Donlan’s department, accepting fines. Dave Ryan went to trial and was acquitted by a jury from Judge Lynch’s panel.
