The jury wanted the ability to zoom in and pause the video, which shows Pehlivan sitting at the bar, next to the victim and her friends.

He is seen buying them whiskey and showing them magic tricks.

Pehlivan is accused of following the victim home, breaking in, and sexually assaulting her.

This is the second time both sides have gone through this since Pehlivan’s first trial ended in a mistrial. Deliberations will begin again tomorrow.
