indecent assault that the drugs impaired her judgment. they are struggling with all three of them. they carry five to ten-year sentences each. and they would run concurrently. vernon odom has more on the deadlock and what went on in the courtroom today. >> some dramatics in the courtroom this morning or late morning i should say as the jury announced they were deadlock but the judge sent them back to look at the charges against bill cosby once again and no word from the jury since then. >> bill cosby looked tired and emotionally drained when he arrived for the fourth day of deliberations so did the jury when they aemerged from 30 hours of talks to tell judge o'neil, quote, we cannot come to a unanimous consensus on any count. the defense immediately call ford a mistrial and the judge denied the motion and sent the jury all from the pittsburgh area back to the jury room to keep trying and the cosby team went on the offensive. >> it shows the not guilty mr. cosby has been saying the entire time many that he is not gulty of these charges they tried to bring about. >> andrea constand showed no emotion. and the seven men and five women continued their deliberations. civil rights attorney gloria allred says it's not over yet. >> this deadlock could change. they are deadlocked on all three counts, after further deliberation perhaps after lunch, as well. it could be that they could reach a different decision. >> reporter: monica the question at this hour will the the judge be forced to declare a mistrial here no answer yet but the former words of former district attorney bruce caster come to mind here, he told andrea constand here criminal charges would probably not hold up in a jury trial. he told her that more then a decade ago. i'm vernon odom, channel 6 "action news". >> thank you vernon. of course technically in our american system there is no time limit imposed on jurors in any situation similar to this. they could take days if not weeks to decide as they continue to deliberate the three counts but in a practical sense as vernon eluded to, they are from point see questered in a hotel. the likelihood is they won't stay for weeks and months but time will tell. lets go to sara bloomquist talking to experts for what is going on in the jurors' minds. >> they are not surprised they thought that the prosecution had an uphill climb with the case given the amount of time since the alleged incident happened and andrea constand remained contact with cosby after this happened. we talked to the legal experts and the fact that the jury was deadlocked and what may come next. the cosby jury is deadlocked but that may not be the end of this case. judge o'neil senthe jury back to continue deliberating. >> saying i appreciate you are deadlocked but go back in and figure it out at this point. >> he is not associated with the cosby case and he says that juries come back with verdicts after telling the judge they are deadlocked. i would say more often than not they come back with the verdict at that point. however, they could come back and say we can't come back with a verdict and that say hung jury at that point. >> she says that the judge has wide discretion for how long the jury can deliberate. >> he is a strict judge and push them as long as they can. they are a sequestered jury and that is another thing, the fact that they are sequestered they came up with a decision quickly so they can get home. in this case the judge will try to push them as long as they can. >> reporter: now both legal experts told us this is highly unusual. most juries come back in the matter of hours and this is nearly a week and in most cases with most juries when they are deadlocked it's one or two people that are holding out. here we are not sure what is happening in the jury room. >> thank you so much sara. the decision lies in the jury but judge steven o'neil has a key role to play for a judge to ask a second time or a third time if jurors come back and say they are hung they must keep trying. i'm monica malpass, back to you. >> thank you. you can continue to follow this story at 6abc.com/cosby trial. there you can find the latest social media posts from the team

has a greater significance. wendy saltzman is live now outside of national park where security is tight and fans are already starting to gather there. >> reporter: the game is going to go on here and probably better than ever. the doors will open in about an hour and a half and we'll have congressman sitting here that are both liberal and conservatives and constituents sitting side by side with a show of support. the ticket sales here are selling like hot cakes at at rate of 500 tickets per hour and this game was expected to raise $600,000 for charity. and now expected to exceed the numbers

representative brian costello from westchester and you were suppose to be here yesterday. >> i missed my practice ride by two minutes and had i not missed i would have been in the line of fire. it's a difficult two days and the most difficult thing right now is just not knowing that two of the people that were shot are fully cleared. they are going to live, one is steve scalise, i play shortstop and he plays second base. it's a shock and unsettling and tonight's game will be a little unsettling but we are playing and i think we are going to play but also pray for the best for them. >> why do you think it's so important to continue with this game tonight? >> one we knew everyone was going to live. it became a moment where if we don't when do you play it and what are we waiting for? and this is part of the rhythm to dealing with the grief. it was a difficult time and there is a lot of grief and what people experienced and the way they have gone about sharing that it's difficult personally. i think playing the game is the best way to work through it. >> i appreciate that. thank you very much for speaking with us and one of the things we are hearing from many representatives is that they can't let fear win. one other thing that is an interesting fact it's a show of unity and a big game. the series was 39-39-1. everyone is coming together but there still is friendly competition about who is expected to win. the people that were injured yesterday would want the game to go on. wendy saltzman channel 6 "action news." >> thank you. time for a check of the accuweather

indecent assault that the drugs impaired her judgment. they are struggling with all three of them. they carry five to ten-year sentences each. and they would run concurrently. vernon odom has more on the deadlock and what went on in the courtroom today. >> some dramatics in the courtroom this morning or late morning i should say as the jury announced they were deadlock but the judge sent them back to look at the charges against bill cosby once again and no word from the jury since then. >> bill cosby looked tired and emotionally drained when he arrived for the fourth day of deliberations so did the jury when they aemerged from 30 hours of talks to tell judge o'neil, quote, we cannot come to a unanimous consensus on any count. the defense immediately call ford a mistrial and the judge denied the motion and sent the jury all from the pittsburgh area back to the jury room to keep trying and the cosby team went on the offensive. >> it shows the not guilty mr. cosby has been saying the entire time many that he is not gulty of these charges they tried to bring about. >> andrea constand showed no emotion. and the seven men and five women continued their deliberations. civil rights attorney gloria allred says it's not over yet. >> this deadlock could change. they are deadlocked on all three counts, after further deliberation perhaps after lunch, as well. it could be that they could reach a different decision. >> reporter: monica the question at this hour will the the judge be forced to declare a mistrial here no answer yet but the former words of former district attorney bruce caster come to mind here, he told andrea constand here criminal charges would probably not hold up in a jury trial. he told her that more then a decade ago. i'm vernon odom, channel 6 "action news". >> thank you vernon. of course technically in our american system there is no time limit imposed on jurors in any situation similar to this. they could take days if not weeks to decide as they continue to deliberate the three counts but in a practical sense as vernon eluded to, they are from point see questered in a hotel. the likelihood is they won't stay for weeks and months but time will tell. lets go to sara bloomquist talking to experts for what is going on in the jurors' minds. >> they are not surprised they thought that the prosecution had an uphill climb with the case given the amount of

it out at this point. >> he is not associated with the cosby case and he says that juries come back with verdicts after telling the judge they are deadlocked. i would say more often than not they come

how long the jury can deliberate. >> he is a strict judge and push them as long as they can. they are a sequestered jury and that is another thing, the fact that they are sequestered they came up with a decision quickly so they can get home. in this case the judge will try to push them as long as they can. >> reporter: now both legal experts told us this is highly unusual. most juries come back in the matter of hours and this is nearly a week and in most cases with most juries when they are deadlocked it's one or two people that are holding out. here we are not sure what is happening in the jury room. >> thank you so much sara. the decision lies in the jury but judge steven o'neil has a key role to play for a judge to ask a second time or a third time if jurors come back and say they are hung they must keep trying. i'm monica malpass, back to you. >> thank you. you can continue to follow this story at 6abc.com/cosby trial. there you can find the latest social media posts from the team

difficult two days and the most difficult thing right now is just not knowing that two of the people that were shot are fully cleared. they are going to live, one is steve scalise, i play shortstop and he plays second base. it's a shock and unsettling and tonight's game will be a little unsettling but we are playing and i think we are going to play but also pray for the best for them. >> why do you think it's so important to continue with this game tonight? >> one we knew everyone was going to live. it became a moment where if we don't when do you play it and what are we waiting for? and

personally. i think playing the game is the best way to work through it. >> i appreciate that. thank you very much for speaking with us and one of the things we are hearing from many representatives
