Former Democratic nominee for Florida governor Andrew Gillum found not guilty of lying to FBI
Andrew Gillum, a former rising star in the Democratic Party, was acquitted Thursday of lying to the FBI, but the jury deadlocked on 18 other charges.
Gillum, who narrowly lost to Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in 2018, was accused by federal prosecutors of conspiring with his mentor, Sharon Lettman-Hicks, to divert campaign contributions for personal use during his unsuccessful run for governor of the Sunshine State.
The 12-member jury reached its verdict on the one charge after more than four days of deliberation.
Federal District Court Judge Allen Winsor declared a mistrial on one conspiracy charge and 17 fraud charges against Gillum and Lettman-Hicks.
Assistant US Attorney Gary Milligan II said the government will retry Gillum and Lettman-Hicks on the charges the jury deadlocked on, according to USA Today.
