Mistrial in Detroit cop's involuntary manslaughter trial
A Wayne County judge declared a mistrial after jurors could not reach a unanimous verdict in the trial of Detroit police officer Joseph Weekley for involuntary manslaughter in the death of 7 year old Aiyana Stanley Jones. The jury cited being unable to agree on the involuntary manslaughter charge after three notes and hours of deliberation. The case drew attention as the police operation was filmed for The First 48 on A&E Networks.
