“There Was One Holdout” – Rancher George Kelly’s Defense Lawyer Says It Was 7 to 1 For Not Guilty Verdict (VIDEO)
George Alan Kelly’s defense attorney Kathy Lowthorp spoke with the media after a judge declared a mistrial in the rancher’s murder case.
A status hearing will be held on Monday where the Santa Cruz County Attorney will decide if George Kelly will face a retrial.
Lowthorp said it was 7 to 1 for a not guilty verdict — One juror thought Kelly was guilty of second-degree murder (or lesser charges to include negligent homicide and manslaughter).
“There was one holdout,” Lowthorp told the press after she walked out of court.
