Montgomery, AL – The jury in Alabama's gambling corruption trial is in its sixth day of deliberations in Montgomery.
The jury sent the judge a note late Tuesday afternoon saying it had reached a unanimous decision on some counts but felt it could never reach agreement on other counts. The judge directed the jury to resume deliberations Wednesday morning. The jury had not issued any other notes through its lunch break on Wednesday.
The jury is considering the fate of a casino owner, four present and former state senators and four others accused of buying and selling votes on pro-gambling legislation. The jury started deliberations late Friday afternoon and has worked every day since then.
