Mistrial for two Maryland doctors charged with trying to give medical records to Russia

A mistrial was declared Thursday in the federal trial of two Maryland doctors charged with trying to help Russia in its war against Ukraine with medical records they believed Moscow could exploit.

The Baltimore Sun reports that U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher declared a mistrial after the jury deadlocked following two days of deliberations.

There was a single holdout juror who believed the government entrapped the defendants and that lead Gallagher to declare the mistrial, CBS Baltimore reports.
