Video: Mistrial Declared in Murder Trial of Former Ohio Campus Officer
A county prosecutor in Ohio is deciding whether to retry a former University of Cincinnati officer in the death of an unarmed motorist after the case ended in a mistrial this weekend.

A county prosecutor in Ohio is deciding whether to retry a former University of Cincinnati officer in the death of an unarmed motorist after the case ended in a mistrial this weekend.
Ray Tensing, 26, was charged with murder and voluntary manslaughter in the death of Sam DuBose, whom Tensing shot and killed after pulling him over in July 2015.
Tensing lost his job after DuBose's death and has pleaded not guilty. A mistrial was declared Saturday after jurors spent 25 hours deliberating the case .
The office of Hamilton County Prosecutor Joseph Deters today declined to comment on the possibility of a retrial but Deters is expected to return to court with a decision later this month, according to his office.
Deters could decide to retry the case on the same charges. But retrying it under the same charges may be unlikely, according to one expert, given that Deters told The Associated Press the jury was deadlocked eight to four in favor of a lesser charge.
