UPDATED OCT 2, 2018

The murder case of Jessica Chambers continues after a Mississippi judge on Monday declared a second mistrial in the capital murder case of the accused Quinton Tellis. Reports state that the mistrial was declared after the jury could not come to a consensus for the second time in a row.

The 29-year-old Tellis has been accused of killing his 19-year-old girlfriend Chambers after setting her ablaze in her car in 2014. Reports state that jurors deliberated for nearly 10 hours over two days in Tellis' retrial to determine whether he was guilty of the crime or not before Panola County Circuit Judge Gerald Chatham declared a mistrial on Monday.
