BANGOR — A Maine jury is going home without a verdict in the case of two men charged in the drug-related killings of three people whose bodies were discovered in a burning car in Bangor in 2012.

Jurors on Wednesday began deliberations in the trial of Randall Daluz of Brockton, Massachusetts, and Nicholas Sexton of Warwick, Rhode Island, who face three counts of murder and one of arson. They are scheduled to reconvene Thursday.

Both men were tried before the same jury in a trial that opened May 1.

Sexton told jurors Daluz shot the victims. Daluz didn’t testify.

Sexton’s attorney called for a mistrial on Wednesday but was denied.

The victims were 24-year-old Nicolle Lugdon of Eddington; 26-year-old Daniel Borders of Hermon; and 28-year-old Lucas Tuscano of Bradford.
