GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) - Jurors deliberating in the John Edwards campaign corruption trial are asking to see several exhibits and they say they need office supplies to help with their discussions.
The request came about two hours after they started discussions Friday. The jurors asked for eight specific exhibits as well as a complete list of the exhibits. They also need a board and markers to write on it.
Edwards is accused of masterminding a plan to use money from wealthy donors to hide his pregnant mistress as he sought the 2008 White House. Defense attorneys said Edwards did not knowingly break campaign finance laws. They also said the payments were a gift, not a campaign contribution.
Edwards has pleaded not guilty to with six criminal counts including conspiracy to violate the Federal Election Campaign Act, accepting contributions that exceeded campaign finance limits, and causing his campaign to file a false financial disclosure report.
He faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted of all charges.
