Jury in Sniper Case Deliberates Four Hours, Breaks for Weekend

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. -- Jurors considering the murder charges against sniper suspect John Allen Muhammad deliberated for four hours Friday without reaching a verdict, and their discussions are scheduled to continue Monday morning. While emphasizing that it is extremely difficult to read anything into the length of jury deliberations, attorneys in Muhammad's case said they believe jurors are taking their time to look at a large amount of evidence from three weeks of testimony.
