Jury Hung on All But One Count in Priest Abuse Trial
The jury that has been deliberating—and asking, like, 30 questions—over the course of 12 days is reportedly hung on all but one count in the trial of Monsignor William Lynn and Rev. James J. Brennan. Sometime around noon on Wednesday, the jury told the court that it was deadlocked on nearly all of the counts related to the alleged sexual abuse of young boys and subsequent cover-up within the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
