Deliberations resumed in Florida on Saturday morning in the murder trial of Michael Dunn amid speculation that the jury was having difficulty reaching a decision on the fate of the white software engineer accused of killing an unarmed black teenager during a dispute over loud music.
Shortly after 9 a.m., Judge Russell L. Healey told a Jacksonville courtroom that the jurors had returned to the Duval County Courthouse and were resuming their work.
“We'll be in recess until we hear something more from the jury,” Healey said in remarks televised from the courtroom.
Jurors asked for large evidence boxes to be removed from the jury room, the judge said. The boxes will be moved to a locker.
The sequestered jurors received the case Wednesday afternoon. On Friday, they told the judge that they had reached a wall in their deliberations and asked to break for the night. more
