Summary:

All 18 jurors returned, reported no impartiality concern when questioned by the judge, and the 12-member panel resumed deliberating; no verdict had been returned at the archive's noon cutoff.

Body:

[VERIFIED FACT] The 12 deliberating jurors and six alternates returned to court Friday morning. Judge William Sullivan asked whether anyone had read or heard anything about the case that could affect impartiality or had a concern about continuing service; all answered no. The judge sent the 12-member panel back to deliberate. [VERIFIED FACT] At the archive's 12:04 p.m. ET research cutoff, the authenticated AP and Court TV streams remained on verdict watch and no verdict, mistrial, or indefinite stay had been announced. Trial Day 23 remains in progress, so this is not a completed-day account. [UNKNOWN] Deliberations are private. The morning supplied no new testimony, exhibit, DNA, exercise-band, Watch/Health, surveillance, 911, blood-source, or affirmative third-party-participation evidence. The absence of public developments does not reveal jurors' views and does not implicate Patrick Clancy, Rachel Danis, or anyone else in staging.

Structured claims:
- [verified_fact] The 12 deliberating jurors and six alternates returned Friday morning; when Judge Sullivan asked whether anyone had encountered information affecting impartiality or had a concern about continuing, all answered no, and the 12-member panel was sent back to deliberate.
