A Los Angeles judge said the jury was 'hopelessly deadlocked' on the three rape charges.
Olmedo read a letter from the jury: “After thorough and considerable discussion, it is clear that we as jurors are adamant about maintaining our individual positions on each of the three counts.”
Three women whose allegations were at the center of the trial testified that they were raped by Masterson, as well as a fourth accuser, though her claims didn’t lead to charges. The verdict suggests that at least one of the jurors didn’t believe the testimony of the Jane Doe accusers — an ex-girlfriend, a friend and an acquaintance.
As the jury walked into the courtroom in downtown Los Angeles to announce that it had reached a verdict, Masterson sat at the end of the defense table with his legs crossed as the judge queried jurors on whether they agreed that they were deadlocked.
