This. I’ve learned to never say never with a jury, but based on the counts I just can’t construct a scenario where they are not guilty on 17 counts but still think he might be guilty on one, it just wouldn't make sense based upon the grouping of charges. . This coupled with the note from last week means it's a high likelihood they are hung up on the FBAR count. If so, whatever, he's facing 280 years instead of 300 years. The complete absence of other notes or request for readback also supports this.
Edit:. Caveat, I've conducted something like 70-80 jury trials in my career and I've learned that anything is possible with a jury.
