Let's get it to the heart of the issues that a jury should in fact consider.

He did not say how long the grand jury had been considering the case.

Some factors the jury considered are part of Federal statute.

A jury is considering whether he should be sentenced to death or to life in prison.

Final charges will be brought only after a grand jury considers the cases.

He said the jury "didn't even consider the evidence, or the lack of it."

The jury and judges first consider the question of guilt.

Both defences failed after the jury had considered the evidence for 25 minutes.

The jury considered the question privately for a few minutes and then told the judge by another note that it would continue.

The 12-member jury has been considering the evidence since last Monday, and a verdict is expected this week.
