Summary:

Judge Sullivan dismissed jurors shortly before 4 p.m. after roughly 17 cumulative hours of deliberation over three days; no verdict was reached, and deliberations are scheduled to resume Tuesday at 9 a.m.

Body:

[VERIFIED FACT] Jurors completed a third day of deliberations Monday without reaching a verdict. Around 3:45 p.m., the jury asked to leave for the evening, and Judge William Sullivan dismissed the panel shortly before 4 p.m. after roughly 17 cumulative hours of deliberation over Thursday, Friday, and Monday. [VERIFIED FACT] Jurors are scheduled to return Tuesday, September 1, at approximately 9 a.m. for a fourth deliberation day. [UNKNOWN] Deliberations are private, and the public Day 24 record supplied no new testimony, exhibits, DNA, exercise-band analysis, Watch/Health data, surveillance, 911 material, blood-source evidence, staging evidence, or evidence of third-party participation. The length of deliberations and absence of a verdict reveal no juror's position and do not implicate Patrick Clancy, Rachel Danis, or anyone else.
