Jury Deadlocked In Murder Case In Baltimore

Gregory M. Delli-Pizzi will face a new trial date of June 4 in Criminal Court after the jury could not reach a verdict on the murder charge in the February fatal beating of Richard M. Wick, a 52 year old metallurgist from Allentown. The defendant is a 26 year old medical student at the University of Maryland and was engaged to Wick’s assailant, a 27 year old nightclub dancer. The jury deliberated for seven hours after two and a half days of testimony before Foreman Joseph V. Frazier announced the deadlock. Both sides presented competing accounts of the altercation sparked by Wick’s unwanted attention to the dancer. Mrs Delli-Pizzi danced at a club opposite the lobby where Wick was a patron.
