A sick juror brought an early end to deliberations Monday in the Kwame Kilpatrick corruption case.
Jurors were sent home before 11:20 a.m. and are scheduled to return at 9 a.m. Tuesday.
From court spokesman Rod Hansen:
I have been informed, Jury deliberated this morning. However one of the jurors was not feeling well and they were excused and have left for the day. Still plan on resuming deliberations tomorrow morning at 9am

Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick sounded pretty confident — cocky? — on the eve of jury deliberations rebooting in the City Hall corruption case.
Kilpatrick, who knows a thing or four about failure, tweeted Sunday about overcoming defeat, killing giants (we’re looking at you, Department of Justice!) and blockbuster endings.
Even your failures will produce Worship. Just wait, have faith, and hang in there for the entire story. The ending will blow your mind.
