The second degree murder trial of Wien’s entered its third week today, when an issue arose that had the judge dismiss the jury until next Monday.
Two of Kalmring’s sisters burst into tears in the courtroom at the unexpected development and delay.
“It’s just another line of heartbreak for our whole family” says the victim’s sister Margaret Leslie.
The cause of the delay can’t be released, as it was discussed in absence of the jury
