: What the Judge Ate for BreakfastWeather stalls RICO trial
By Ron Sylvester
Weather interfered with the continuation of the federal racketeering trial against six accused Crips gang members this morning.
As sleet peppered the windows of the federal courthouse, U.S. District Judge J. Thomas Marten halted the trial and sent jurors home under the threat of more severe winter storms this afternoon.
Marten spent nearly 2 1/2 hours reading 89 pages of legal instructions, upon which jurors will base their deliberations.
With the storm expected to pass this weekend, Marten recessed the trial until 9 a.m. Monday for lawyers to present their closing arguments.
The charges stem from the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, known as RICO.
We will continue live courtroom updates Monday, via Twitter.
