Jury Deliberations Begin in Conrad Black Fraud Trial
The jury has started deliberations in the fraud and racketeering case against former media mogul Conrad Black and three Hollinger executives. Prospects of a lengthy wait loom as 43 counts cover false tax returns, obstruction of justice, and alleged theft of about 60 million from shareholders. Prosecutors allege Black and others schemed to pocket millions from non compete payments and misused around 20 million for perks and a Manhattan apartment. The panel must consider each count separately with a unanimous verdict required.
