Jurors in the trial of Jeffrey Donaldson are scheduled to continue deliberations after being unable to reach verdicts on child sex offence charges at the end of the previous session. Multiple reports say the jury remained in deliberations on Thursday but was sent home for the weekend, with plans to resume later. One outlet reports that jurors are set to resume deliberations on Friday, while another describes the jury being sent home on Thursday night. Ahead of the renewed court process, Donaldson arrives at court as deliberations continue. The reporting across sources is consistent that the jury has not yet delivered verdicts and that further deliberations are required to reach a decision on the child sex offence counts before the court. The articles do not provide additional detail on the evidence presented or the likelihood or direction of any possible verdict, focusing instead on the procedural status of the jury’s work and the timing of its next steps.
