[ORIGINAL POST on May 6]

There was no verdict today, the first full day of jury deliberations. @BethKaras reports on HLN that the jury had no questions or requests for information of any kind today.

I don't expect to update this blog with new posts until there is a verdict and so I'll be updating here on this post if there is any interesting news, rumors or reports on the deliberations.
