<i> From Times staff and wire service reports</i>

Jurors in the McMartin Pre-School case, the nation’s longest and costliest criminal trial, returned two more sealed verdicts today for a total of 34--passing the halfway point in deciding 65 child molestation charges against Raymond Buckey and his mother.

The two new verdicts, submitted minutes after jurors began their day of deliberations, bring to eight the number of verdicts the jurors have reached this week. So far, they have given the judge 34 sealed envelopes containing their decisions.
