Breaking: Trump Verdict Livethread

Jury HAS reached a verdict. 11 hours, 43 minutes.

Developing.

Analysis is saying the jury using the word "verdict" indicates this is not a hung jury.

Jury has asked for more time to fill out paperwork, which makes sense, 34 counts x 12 jurors, 408 line items?

Judge has now called for the jury.
