Jury enters third day of deliberations in Trop trial

Monday, May 11, 1998 | 10:10 a.m.

The jury in the courtroom of Senior U.S. District Judge Justin Quackenbush of Spokane, Wash., had taken a break from deliberations Friday to have the testimony of some witnesses be read back to them.

Prosecutors contend that former Tropicana landlords Ed and Fred Doumani, aided by tax attorney John Jagiela, scammed the bankruptcy court and lied to legitimate creditors to put money in their own pockets.
