Katehis Murder Case Deemed Mistrial

The murder trial of WABC newscaster George Weber was declared a mistrial on Wednesday . Friends and neighbors of the Carroll Gardens broadcaster were left feeling like another crime had been committed.
Prosecutors say that Greek John Katehis  stabbed Weber 50 times after a kinky sex romp went awry.  Yet the jury in the case deadlocked after two and a half days of deliberation failed to convince the last holdout.
“This is more than an outrage,” Canarsie native, Guardian Angels founder and radio host Curtis Sliwa said after Judge Neil Firetog dismissed the jury. “George was stabbed over 50 times, and this jury couldn’t conclude that this kid was trying to kill him? Clearly this guy was completely out of control.”
Katehis, a resident of Queens, remains in jail pending a second trial.
