Maybe there was only one or two holdouts in favor of acquittal on all counts, in which case there may be a retrial which will result in a conviction on at least manslaughter. However, a conviction on on at least M-2 seems more appropriate.

Hoping for a better jury pool on the retrial...

Mind you, that's only to satisfy my sense of justice for his victim. The important thing is that this asshole spend the rest of his life in prison...and it looks like that's already going to happen.
