Answer to Question 1

long deliberations are expected high profile defendant
high amount of media interest and coverage
avoid biasing the jurors

Answer to Question 2

Shows such as CSI have fostered jury's beliefs that there should be a
substantial amount of forensic evidence in a case.
In cases that rely mostly on circumstantial evidence, jurors are less willing to convict the defendant.
Jurors expectations with regard to evidence are unrealistic.
