A mistrial has been declared 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.
Dr. Anna Gabrielian, a former Johns Hopkins anesthesiologist, and her spouse, Dr. Jamie Lee Henry, a physician and major in the U.S. Army, remain charged with conspiring to assist Russia after it invaded Ukraine and disclosing the health information of several patients. The charges carry maximum penalties of decades in prison.
Defense lawyers for Gabrielian and Henry declined to comment. The doctors, who left the federal courthouse in downtown Baltimore hand-in-hand after the mistrial was declared, also declined to comment. Zelinsky was quoting language Gabrielian used in a meeting with an undercover FBI agent. The government presented the hours of footage captured by that agent's covert camera during several meetings with Gabrielian and Henry, including one in which the doctors provided medical information of eight patients to the agent.
"This was not about helping Russia and hurting the United States. This was about offering humanitarian aid," Henry's attorney, David Walsh-Little, said in closing arguments
