Jury Deliberations Continue In Harrisburg Conspiracy Case
The Harrisburg jury has not reached a verdict as of Friday and requested a third reading of instructions on conspiracy. Lawyers gathered with the judge while the panel, composed of nine women and three men, sent a second note withdrawing the latest request. Defense attorney Leonard Boudin, who previously represented Dr. Benjamin Spock, said the case is highly complex with ten counts and multiple defendants, as foreman Harold Sheets again asked in a second note from the deliberation room.
