Jury Deadlock Breaks With Guilty Verdicts In Powers Case
Texas jurors return to courtroom after long deadlock over Powers and Candace Messler, voting 8-4 not guilty then 4-8, finally reaching a unanimous verdict for not guilty on Powers.

The piece ties jury action to the state’s foundation school program funding and cost-index adjustments across counties, reflecting fiscal implications for local districts.
