Dixon verdict before Thanksgiving?
In Monday’s News Wave, we had a reader mention that at the rate the jury deliberations were going in the Sheila Dixon trial, that the jury would be ruining some Thanksgiving plans. We asked what might happen with that in our morning news roundup today and in our Tuesday News Wave.
Later in the day we were looking at reports from Baltimore Sun reporters tweeting about the trial and noticed that Annie Linskey (@annie_linskey) was wondering about the possibility of no verdict today. So, we asked her about what the judge might about sending jurors home for Thanksgiving.
… no idea what judge will do. Baltimore circuit court is open Wednesday.
A few minutes later, Linskey replied again:
… conventional wisdom is judge will want verdict before thanksgiving.
Thanks to Annie Linskey of the Sun for helping shed some light on this question for us.
