Jury Starts Deliberating Florida Lozano Case
Jurors in the manslaughter trial of a Latino Miami policeman began deliberating Thursday, trying to determine whether William Lozano recklessly shot a speeding black motorcyclist, killing him and a passenger, or acted in self-defense.
The six members of a multiethnic jury spent nearly three hours deliberating the case after hearing six hours of closing arguments and a week of testimony in the racially-sensitive retrial which had five changes of venue before ending up in Orlando.
The jurors will resume deliberations at 9 a.m. today.
