A California jury that convicted former NFL player Kellen Winslow Jr. of raping a 58-year-old homeless woman has been ordered to return to deliberations after deadlocking on eight other charges against him, including two additional counts of rape.
Former NFL player Kellen Winslow Jr., right, appears at his preliminary hearing in Vista, Calif., on July 11, 2018.
Prosecutors did not immediately say whether they would retry those charges. Winslow currently faces up to nine years in prison. Conviction on all charges could bring a life sentence. The jury told the court Monday it was deadlocked on the other charges but the judge had ordered them to resume deliberations on Tuesday.
Prosecutor Dan Owens told the jury of eight men and four women that Winslow is a"wolf in sheep's clothing." A 57-year-old woman said he exposed himself to her while she tended to her garden in May 2018. The jury found him guilty of that charge Monday. Defense attorney Marc Carlos questioned the credibility of the women's claims, saying they had lied, misconstrued things or were unable to initially identify him correctly.
