SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) - The trial of a Massachusetts man charged with killing his 5-month-old son has ended in a mistrial after the jury could not reach a verdict.
The Republican (https://bit.ly/2ouW0Z6 ) reports that a Hampden Superior Court judge declared a mistrial on Tuesday after jurors reported they were deadlocked on the murder charge against 29-year-old Raymond Collazo, of Springfield.
The jury had been deliberating nearly a week. The trial started March 3.
