Daniel Wade Moore: Mistrial

I wrote about Daniel Wade Moore back in back in November of 2005. Daniel Wade Moore’s original conviction was thrown out, and his new trial began in February.

Today after six days of deliberation, the jury was hung, and the new trial was declared a mistrial nine years to the day Karen Tipton was found dead.

How ironic is that?

After the trial, the jury’s vote was 4-4-4, with 4 being undecided (source). After deliberations, 8 people were for acquitting Daniel Moore, but 4 people were hold outs so it looks like this will go to trial for a third time.

I was happy to hear that 8 people were for acquittal. I can’t believe they will try this for a 3rd time.
