The longer this jury deliberates and can't find a verdict means Joey either gets a hung jury or is found innocent. Juries don't tend to go this long after notes from the judge to keep going only to have a guilty verdict. The longer they deliberate the better Merlino has to feel. Even if the feds re-try this case his odds of beating it go even higher. With Rubeo their star witness, his lawyer will just find more and more ways to go after him and make him look terrible like he did in this case. Rubeo was a horrible star witness and will more than likely NEVER get a conviction of Merlino.
