Annmarie Drago's second trial over the death of anti-gang activist Evelyn Rodriguez has ended with jurors failing to reach a verdict on a criminally negligent homicide charge.
The second trial of a New York woman accused of causing the death of an anti-gang activist in a dispute over a memorial honoring the activist’s slain daughter has ended in a mistrial after jurors failed to reach a verdict on the top count of criminally negligent homicide. Jurors on Long Island deadlocked Monday after four days of deliberations in the case of Annmarie Drago, accused of fatally running over Evelyn Rodriguez in 2018.
Drago was convicted in Rodriguez's death in 2020, but the conviction was overturned last year and the judge ordered a new trial, citing prosecutorial misconduct. Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney said after the second trial ended Monday with no verdict on the homicide charge that he is prepared to retry the case yet again.
Rodriguez had become a symbol in the fight against gang violence after Kayla was hacked and beaten to death along with a friend in 2016. Authorities believe the girls were victims of the MS-13 gang.
