Update on hung jury # 2

The client whose jury deadlocked on Possession of Stolen Property in the First Degree accepted a reduction to Possession of Stolen Property in the Second Degree, and was sentenced to credit for time served, concurrent with the driving offense on which they convicted him.

This was the sentencing hearing my son watched. Interesting to have a six-year-old's perspective: "Daddy, does that man have children at home?" "No, Joe, he doesn't." Too early yet to tell my boy about my poor in-custody clients who do.
