新奥尔良联邦法院的陪审团经过30多小时的审议后，对涉及大规模保险欺诈和谋杀的案件作出分裂判决1。被告Sean Alfortish被判邮件电汇欺诈共谋罪、两项邮件欺诈罪、妨碍司法罪和作伪证罪成立1，但陪审团在五项与谋杀相关的指控上陷入僵局1。法官宣布将就谋杀指控进行二次审判，检察官表示将重新起诉1。
Sean Alfortish面临90年的监禁刑期，而共同被告Leon Parker面临60年的监禁刑期1。此案源于代号"Operation Sideswipe"的行动，该行动中已有超过63人被定罪1。目前未解决的指控涉及联邦线人Cornelius Garrison遇害案1。美国检察官David Courcelle表示"今天的判决是向正义迈出的重要一步"1。
A federal jury in New Orleans has returned a mixed verdict after more than 30 hours of deliberation in a major insurance fraud and murder case 1. Sean Alfortish was convicted on charges of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, two counts of mail fraud, obstruction of justice, and perjury 1. However, the jury deadlocked on five murder-related charges against him, prompting the judge to declare a mistrial on those counts 1. Prosecutors have indicated they will pursue a retrial on the unresolved murder allegations, which involve the death of federal informant Cornelius Garrison 1.
Alfortish faces up to 90 years in prison on his convictions, while co-defendant Leon Parker faces up to 60 years 1. The case stems from "Operation Sideswipe," a federal investigation into a sprawling scheme involving staged vehicle wrecks and insurance fraud, which has already resulted in more than 63 convictions 1. U.S. Attorney David Courcelle characterized the mixed outcome as "an important step toward justice" 1.
