A serious crash is blocking a lane along I-275 in Taylor Mill
NEWS. THE TRIAL OF A WESTCHESTER MAN ACCUSED OF MURDERING FOUR MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY ENDS IN A HUNG JURY. AND THANKS FOR JOINING US AT 5:00. I’M SHEREE PAOLELLO MIKE DARDIS. A LOT OF DRAMA WITH THIS THING. FROM WHAT WE’RE LEARNING, DELIBERATIONS BECAME HEATED. SOME JURORS SAYING THEY WANTED OUT OF THEIR WLWT NEWS 5. KARIN JOHNSON HAS BEEN COVERING THE CASE. SHE JOINS US LIVE FROM HAMILTON. ALL RIGHT. IT’S GOING TO BE A LOT TO FIT IN HERE, BUT WHAT HAPPENED TODAY? YEAH, A LOT. MIKE ULTIMATELY, JUDGE GREG HOWARD DECLARED A MISTRIAL. THE JURORS WERE NOT ABLE TO REACH A UNANIMOUS DECISION WHEN TRYING TO DECIDE WHETHER GURPREET SINGH WAS GUILTY OR NOT OF KILLING HIS WIFE IN LAWS AND WIVES. AND NOW, ACCORDING TO PROSECUTORS THERE WAS SCREAMING MATCH IN THE JURY ROOM. TWO JURORS HAD HOSTILITY TOWARDS EACH OTHER. JUROR 111 CALLED. JUROR 83 CONDESCENDING AND VERY ARGUMENTATIVE, WHILE JUROR 83 SAID SHE WAS TOLD SHE WAS STUPID AND IGNORANT. JUROR 83 WAS THE ONLY ONE IN FAVOR OF AN ACQUITTAL. THE OTHER 11 WANTED TO CONVICT ON FOUR COUNTS OF AGGRAVATED MURDER. PROSECUTORS ASKED THE JUDGE TO REPLACE THE TWO FIGHTING JURORS WITH ALTERNATES. THE DEFENSE ARGUED AGAINST THAT IN THE END. THE JURY WAS DEADLOCKED. I DID SPEAK WITH TWO JURORS WHO WERE IN FAVOR OF CONVICTION. AND HERE’S SOME OF WHAT THEY HAD TO SAY. THIS JUROR THOUGHT THAT THERE WAS ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES THAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED AND THAT SHE WASN’T WILLING TO ACCEPT THE EVIDENCE. I THINK SHE CAME IN WITH THAT CONCLUSION AND SHE WAS NOT WILLING TO BUDGE ON HER OPINION. I THINK OUR CONCLUSION WAS THAT BEFORE TRIAL JUDGE, AS WAS OBSERVED TODAY, PLAIN AND SIMPLE, FOUR PEOPLE WERE MURDERED. YOU KNOW, I DON’T TAKE THAT LIGHTLY. AND IN ALL FAIRNESS, WE DID GIVE THAT JUROR JURY THREE AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK. BUT SHE DECLINED TO DO AN INTERVIEW. THAT IS HER RIGHT DO SO. I ALSO ASKED PROSECUTOR MIKE MOSER. I SAID, YOU KNOW, DO YOU PLAN ON RETRY THIS CASE? AND HIS ANSWER WAS, QUOTE, YES, HELL, YES. REPORTING LIVE TONIGHT IN HAMILTON, KAREN JOHNSON, WLWT NEWS 5. ALL RIGHT. SO THAT’S CONFIRMATION, OBVIOUSLY, THAT THEY’RE GOING TO RETRY THE CASE THERE, KAREN. ALL RIGHT. SO WE KNOW THEY’RE DOING THE CASE AGAIN. WHAT HAPPENS WITH SINGH, THOUGH, WHILE ALL THIS IS PLAYING OUT, DOES HE STAY IN JAIL? YEAH. YOU KNOW, MIKE, HIS INDICTMENT, HE WAS INDICTED ON FOUR COUNTS OF AGGRAVATED MURDER. THAT INDICTMENT STILL STANDS SO RIGHT NOW HE IS IN THE BUTLER COUNTY JAIL. THAT’S WHERE HE WILL REMAIN UNTIL THIS CASE IS RETRIED. I ASKED FOR A TIMELINE, BUT THERE REALLY ISN’T ONE AT THIS POINT. IT DEPENDS ON WHETHER THE RIGGERS TEAM, IF THEY DECIDE TO STAY ON THIS CASE, WHICH THEY’RE UNSURE OF. BUT NOVEMBER 1ST, THAT’S WHEN ANOTHER HEARING HAS BEEN SET. SO WE EXPECT TO KNOW A LOT MORE IN TERMS OF A TIMELINE. AT THAT AT THAT TIME. BACK TO YOU. ALL RIGHT. WE RARELY GET TO HEAR FROM JURORS AFTER A CASE LIKE THIS. A GREAT JOB. KAREN BRINGING US SOME INSIGHT IN BEHIND THE SCENES STUFF GOING ON THERE. THANKS SO MUCH. A DRIVER HAS DIED AFTER A ROLLOVER CRASH IN CLEAVES AIR CARE FLEW A PASSENGER TO U.S. MEDICAL CENTER. THE SHERIFF’S OFFICE NOW SAYS THAT DRIVER WAS SPEEDING WESTBOUND ON HARRISON AVENUE, RIGHT NEAR MORGAN ROAD, JUST BEFORE ABOUT 2:00 THIS MORNING.
