mike tobin has been live on planet blago, outside the federal courthouse. any idea how close we are to hearing an official verdict? you know, possibly the most telling sign came from the judge himself when he told defense counsel to make sure their clients were never farther from a half hour away from the federal building, the defense counsel took that as a sign the jury has gone as far as it can go and this chapter in the blagojevich saga is coming to a close. i believe the deliberations are over and they re hung and that s my personal opinion. reporter: and of course there s no way to know specifically what is going on inside of that jury room, shepard. all we can do is show up and wait for another heads up from the jury. shepard: we know from earlier statements to the judge, they have agreement on two of the 24
spat in the jury room. shepard: that makes sense. how is blago doing? what s he been up to? i haven t seen him in a while. he s keeping a low profile. he goes to a run and tends to his daughters. most of the time he comes out into the sunshine for a jog. shepard: when do we think this may come down? it could be any minute, right? reporter: yeah. it really could be any minute. but given that indication that they asked for the language of their oath, they re trying to talk about something inside that jury room. so that could tell you it could draw out a while longer than we expected, but the only way to know is when we get another note out of the jury room. shepard: mike tobin live on planet blago in chicago. here are our hopes for all of you. we hope the jury comes out and speaks. we expect verdicts on some of the counts and we ll have a hung jury on some of the counts.
