Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General John Yoo, now a UC Berkeley law professor, is closely monitoring the ongoing deliberations in the trial involving former President Trump. With no new notes from the jury, the situation remains uncertain as the jury continues to deliberate.
Yoo notes that the longer the deliberations go on, the more favorable it is for President Trump, as it indicates a lack of unanimity among the jurors. A hung jury could result if just one or two jurors disagree with a conviction, leading to a mistrial and potentially delaying the legal proceedings past the upcoming election.
