We're back in the record in 26C, or 88, State of Ohio versus Caleb C. Flynn. The court has been advised that the jury has reached a verdict. Before I bring the jury in, the court wants to make a statement to the gallery. We have quite a few people here. First of all, I want to commend you on your behavior and your response to the evidence throughout these proceedings. However, when the verdict is reached, I would ask that you continue to have that same behavior. This has been a very emotional case, and we want to make sure that the court is maintained. If there should be an outburst, I'm going to have one of the deputies remove those individuals so that we can have a complete evenness of the behavior and the decorum. There's nothing further from counsel, I'm going to have the jury brought in. Anything from the state? No, Your Honor. Ms. Rolligan? Mr. Sosendorff, who's bringing in the jury? Thanks, Your Honor.
