FROM THE NEWSROOM: HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut judge has told a deadlocked jury to try again to reach a verdict in the trial of a woman accused of attempting to hire a hit man to kill her ex-husband during a bitter child custody court case. Jurors in Hartford Superior Court told Judge Edward J. Mullarkey on Friday that they werent likely to reach a verdict in the attempted murder case of former Bloomfield resident Tiffany Stevens. Mullarkey denied a defense motion for a mistrial and told jurors to make another attempt at a unanimous verdict. Deliberations began Wednesday. Stevens denies allegations she paid $5,000 to a maintenance man to kill her ex-husband, Eric Stevens, in 2012. The plot wasnt carried out. Tiffany Stevens lawyer suggested Eric Stevens and the maintenance made up the story.
