11:35 AM After three hours of deliberating, the jurors are enjoying an early lunch as they continue their work. Their pizza was delivered several minutes ago. They've now deliberated a total of 19 1/2 hours.

2:00 PM. The jury has just left for the day. After a total of 22 hours of deliberating over the course of four work days, they've not yet reached a verdict in the trial of Dr. Cyril Wecht. They'll be back to continue tomorrow morning at 8:30 AM.
