One of the jurors was released per previous agreement with judge. She basically stated the jury was hung and thus Menendez walks. It is New Jersey after all...

I can’t see that weasel getting convicted. There is bound to be money flowing under the table. Too many big fish are involved. Evidently it just takes one juror to stop the process.
