Apparent Hung Jury in Wecht Political Show Trial

This is good news for the defense.

To refresh your memory, this trial is about "celebrity pathologist Cyrl Wecht" allegedly using public resources of his medical examiner's office for his private practice, and 24 of the counts are over $3.06.

Basically, it appears that he may have used a publicly paid secretary to run his business and make some faxes, and the US Attorney in Pittsburgh literally made a federal case out of this.

Note that he is a prominent Democrat, and that Republican Dick Thornburg, former Attorney General has called it a political witch hunt.
