Jurors stuck over Cahill; former aide acquitted

Judge prods for verdict in ex-treasurer’s case

The jury’s announcement that it had cleared Scott Campbell of two counts of conspiracy but was still wrestling with the same charges against Cahill added a new element of suspense to the trial, which ­began five weeks ago.
