Deliberations Continue In Mob Trial

By George Anastasia
For Bigtrial.net

After a two-day snow storm delay, the jury in the racketeering conspiracy trial of mob boss Joe Ligambi and his nephew George Borgesi met for about five hours today without reaching a
consensus.

The panel of 11 women and one man asked no questions and sent out no notes. They will return tomorrow at 9:30 for the ninth day of deliberations in the high profile organized crime case.

The jury announced last week that it had reached a partial verdict, deciding two of the five counts it has been asked to consider. Judge Eduardo Robreno urged them to keep deliberating despite a note that indicated they had a "firm difference of opinion" on the other three counts.

Whether the days off changed their perspective remains to be seen. The conventional wisdom is that if the panel sends out another note indicating they are deadlocked, the judge would be hard pressed not to take the partial verdict and declare a mistrial on the other counts.

With a weekend and another potential snow storm looming, several observers were predicting that tomorrow, Friday, will bring some resolution to the case.

  1. The suspense is killing me. I hope today is the day. Judge Robreno is trying his best to extend this trial into extra innings. The government, depending on which charges are settled and which are hung, will try this a third time. I just cant imagine a guilty verdict on the partial verdict. We will see.

  5. Every body hobbie on here is to root for guilty or not guilty but sucks when they start with personal shit because they dont like ones opinion. As for me
    I said it earlier i thought Uncle Joe was a pretty good boss as for his nephew never cared for him i have no problem with the beating or killing amongs the people in this busssiness but to do to innocent or someone who diagrees with or just gets his rocks off i do. As for worrying about being beaten or killed for my opinion its not my first rodeo either with that said i hope Uncle Joe is found not guilty as for Boy George i hope he.s found guilty he.s bad forBussiness ! .

  16. Hopefully they beat it, its a disgrace to waste our taxpayers money without any repercussion. If they want a murder/violence trial than prove it, not use a gambling charge and focus all the time and money on hearsay from informants and a ten plus year old recording a defendant using vulgar language. That same vulgar language is used by our so-called role models like football, basketball, baseball athlete's quite often and even some caught on video/tape saying those things but yet we give them a pass. Even some politicians like our Vice President if anyone recalls.
    The feds have really stretched themselves out so far to get a conviction, indirectly going after alleged and hearsay of violence.

    So is it conviction of vulgarity, that's what it will look like.If their is a a guilty verdict. Meanwhile the witnesses go free after committing violence as they have testified, their words, no body else's.

    5. Let me tell you all something ive lost family members friends to this life but guess what thats the life they chose so either they were killed or in jail. So before you make your comments about people and there family just stop and think thats the life they wanted to live so if they got killed or went to jail or your a person they tried to kill and you know your on here just keep selling cars in witness protection. You also wanted to be a gangster your own crue tried to kill u. I dont think your btother should have got killed but you killed him because you wanted to be a gangster. When they walk out in the next week or two dont be surprised. And for you other people that have no stake in this u can say what you want on here but wont say it on the streets. Use dont even know quarter of what really goes on. My family members that were killed hey they wanted that life im sure i stand next to the people that killed them everyday and i consider them friends.

  32. Mr. Anastasia, what is going on down at the federal courhouse? I cant believe that they are going to go another day possibly without a agreement on these charges. The last jury took 21 days on a litany of charges against 7 defendants. We are on day 8 for two defendants and 5 charges. This is getting ridiculous for everyone involved. Anyway thanks for the updates. Let me know what you think of the current process. I hope today is the day but its looking like day 9 is coming.

  33. I have sat hear day after day and read the statements of all your posts on here (No Balls Anonymous Posts). I was sentenced to 97 months in prison & 3 years supervised release. I came home to nothing. No Job, No Life, and most importantly No Mother. She died while I was incarcerated. I could have gotten a visit if after almost 5 years in prison I would have cooperated with the Federal Authorities on ongoing investigations. I elected to do my time like a man. I don't apologize to anyone for the actions that place me in jail. I do however owe an apology to my Mother who I couldn't be there for because of those actions. Today would have been my Mother's 82nd birthday had she lived. Today I live my life as a successful restaurant owner. Everything I have achieved I did through hard work and effort. Many, Many Many periods in which I received no pay in order to redeem myself not only in the eyes of society but in the eyes of both my deceased parents. I asked for nothing but the same rights anybody who wants to sucked in society and business is entitled to. Because of my felony I can't borrow SBA money. I was forced by the government to pay a fine in order to go into business. Guess what, bottom line I broke the law and paid my debt to society. I live my life with a different set of principles today. So I will not have the good name in which I work hard to re-establish be slandered by all the no name anonymous tough guys and gals on here. EVERYONE GROW UP AND GET A LIFE.

  35. Mr. Lutz, could not agree with you more. You are a stand up guy with a fabulous restaurant. I am so sorry about how the loss of your mother happened while you were incarcerated and the federal government played fuc* fuc* with you and tried to hold that over your head to try and force you to cooperate. Much success to you and the Kitchem consigliere moving forward. You are definitely someone that everyone should look up to as a person who has successfully moved on from any transgressions from your past...god speed sir...

  39. Tick tock tick tock goes the clock. We know theres a verdict on 2 counts hung on other three against uncle joe. Probably both looking guilty on racketering thats got 15 yrs all over it

    ReplyDelete
  40. If I were to speculate on what the 2 verdicts are I would lay odds they are not guilty on the witness tampering and possibly a guilty or not guilty one another Ligambi charge. The Racketeering Conspiracy charge if hung will bring about a third trial for sure and I dont think knowing how Judge Robreno has handled this case from the beginning that either Ligambi or Borgesi will get bail. That would be a shame but its just speculation at this point. Well see someday soon the outcome I hope.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I'd be surprised if the government wouldn't grant bail for a third trial. I belive even Judge Robreno would grant bail and the G may be able to work out stricter conditions if they worked together on an appropriate bail condition.

  49. Yesterday the news reported the city is tight on funds due to all the salt ,snow plowing ,gas expensives etc..But tons of money put towards an investigation against JL and GB ..Smfh ..Where's the knowledge in this city and our government etc..As well as schools closing ,teachers laid off year after year..Why is everything so backwards my goodlord ? Why are the Feds ,our government ,politicians so crooked ,it's disgusting and unfair to the good tax payers.Our children are growing up in such a bad country the USA..I refuse to have anymore children due to the crookedness in the USA.It's disgusting..Every dollar spent on this case could have went to schools,teachers,poverty,city repairs,firefighters,police,hospitals,disease research,education advertising and education upgrades,more money put to finding rapist,the countries most wanted,surveillance cameras in north and west Philly due to these overwhelming amount of crime in them areas.My heart is broken that our stripes and stars are disgraced by our own dirty leaders in this city,state,country.The Hod Lord must cry everyday ay the directness of this world and its terrible legal systems.The judge in this case should be ashamed of himself also.He should resign even before a verdict,outcome,And write" I am a dirty judge hoping the feds get a win cause they pushed me before this case to help incarcerate these men.And I don't deserve the honor to be a judge or leader".For he is a crooked judge andthe Goodlord knows he is.I also weep everyday to what our justice systems have turned into.A disgrace they are.A revolution should come our way oneday and throw every legal leader out of office across the USA.I pray and wish for a better tomorw but that will never happen.It's so so and heartwrenching.Every fed,politician,majority of legal leaders should be ashamed of themselves.And yes the Goodlord will judge everyone of them including the rest of humanity.So sad so so sad.Thus case is only an example of the Crums across our once beautiful country .

      Hey 2 PPl up. I totally get that you want Borgesi and whoever else to go to church. But please, for God's sake, use the proper contraction. It's "everyday YOU'RE on the street". What you are using shows ownership. Since you're on here quite frequently, plus I enjoy your rants - If you could make this small correction in your typing, I would be forever grateful. Thank you.

  53. It's appalling that some people can hide behind anonymous and say ridiculous comments and not debate the case itself. How many of you all want to criticize on appearances, who a person is based on your view or opinion. I want you to ask yourself what people would say about you and what they think the kind person you are based on their view of you but not knowing you!? Judging someone based by looking at them from a far or even just speculating who they are inside. Calling a person a wannabe, playing gangster, or whatever shows the level of intellect you are. Stay on the case and the facts.
