Juror in Stevens corruption trial vanishes during deliberations
Juror No. 4 Marian Hinnant failed to appear for jury duty and claimed she lied about her father’s death to visit the Breeders' Cup in Arcadia California. Judge Emmet Sullivan ordered her to explain her disappearance, while notes and defense counsel accompanied her in court. Police report five homicides near a Long Beach homeless area with no suspects or motive, as rain may have washed away evidence.
