After more than two days of deliberations, the jury is still out in the Rod Blagojevich corruption trial.
The ousted governor faces more than 24 counts of conspiracy and racketeering for allegedly trying to sell Barack Obama's former Senate seat.
How long will it take to get a verdict? It's anyone's guess, but here's a look at some other high-profile cases.
Back in 2006, when Illinois' other governor, George Ryan, went on trial. It took the jury 11 days to reach a verdict. Guilty, of racketeering, fraud, false statements and tax violations.
As for Ryan's Chief of Staff Scott Fawell, that jury spent seven days deliberating before finding him guilty of diverting state employees to do political work on state time.
