NATALIE ALLEN, CNN ANCHOR: Jury deliberations continue today in the trial of four white police officers accused of murdering an unarmed black man in New York. CNN's Maria Hinojosa is following developments -- Maria.</s>MARIA HINOJOSA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Natalie, just over an hour ago, jurors sent a note to the judge asking if he could please clarify the definition of manslaughter one. He told them that that would be causing someone's death with intent to cause serious physical injury with a conscious objective and purpose. Earlier today, the jurors had asked the judge to please clarify the definition between murder with -- intentional murder and murder with depraved indifference. Those were the two top charges. Manslaughter would be the charge that follows next. Outside and inside the courtroom, there is much tension. There is very few protests today; just a small one in support of the Diallo family with someone beating a drum 41 times in memory of the 41 bullets that were shot at Amadou Diallo. Yesterday in the Bronx, the clergy took to the streets asking for calm, saying that that's what they would like to see happen in case the police officers are acquitted of all of the charges against them. The officers are charged with second-degree murder, but the judge also told them that there are lesser charges, including manslaughter one, manslaughter two and criminally negligent homicide. The lesser charges could include sentences of probation or minimal time in jail. The most serious charges could carry 25 years to life in prison. Reporting live, Maria Hinojosa, CNN -- Natalie.</s>ALLEN: All right, Maria, thank you. And when that verdict comes in, CNN will provide live coverage of it.
