The trial against Stefan Eriksson, the Swedish mafia-man businessman ground to a halt today when jurors told Judge Patricia Schnegg they were deadlocked 10-2 in favor of convicting Bo Stefan Eriksson on the two counts of grand theft and fraudulent concealment with intent to defraud. This was in addition to his previous plea of no contest to a drunk driving charge in connection with the February 21st crash where he went from simple game boy-wannabe-makin' exec in the public eye — to Swede capo with a penchant for destroying $1.5 million Ferrari Enzos. He's still waiting trial on charges of being a felon in possession of a firearm — a .357-Magnum handgun that authorities found on his premises in March. No word yet on whether prosecutors will take another shot at Eriksson. Ha! I slay me. [Hat tip to a321hoss123!]
