2008 Channel 4 Action News reporter Bob Mayo is covering the trial of Dr. Cyril Wecht at the federal courthouse in downtown Pittsburgh. He will be posting blogs as often as possible from court. These are the raw notes that were sent on his mobile device. Wecht Trial Day 29 - March 26, 2008: Jury Watch Day 58:30 AM The jurors are now beginning their fifth day of deliberating the 41 criminal counts against Dr. Cyril Wecht. The room where they'll be meeting is adjacent to the courtroom of Judge Arthur Schwab. As reporters took up watch in the empty courtroom, we could hear a moment of loud laughter from some of the jurors this morning before they settled down to their work.This is the 23rd hour of jury deliberations.11:31 AM As the jurors entered their 26th hour of deliberations, their lunch cart just arrived. As on the previous days, they are apparently continuing to work through their meal. This week they've had no questions for the judge. Their only request came on Day Two of deliberations, when they asked to see a copy of the laws on which the charges were based. That request last week was denied.1:58 PM. After completing 27 1/2 hours of deliberations over the course of five working days, the Wecht trial jury is going home for the day. Just before they exited, we could hear the sound of laughter from the jury room.... as we heard at the start of their morning session. They're back tomorrow at 8:30 AM.
