Jury Still Deadlocked in Rubino Trial

Struggling to break a deadlock, jurors in the trial of former Orange County Budget Director Ronald S. Rubino deliberated for a sixth day Thursday, but still failed to arrive at a verdict. Jurors will resume deliberations this morning, two days after the panel told presiding Judge J. Stephen Czuleger that they were a “hung jury” and have been plagued by personal infighting. Rubino is charged with two counts of helping former Treasurer Robert L. Citron skim $93 million in interest earnings belonging to cities, school districts, and other government agencies.
