Alexandria, Va. - A jury in Alexandria, Va. on Friday entered its second day of deliberations in the fraud trial of two former executives of AOL, The Washington Post reported.

Former business affairs executive Kent Wakeford and former unit vice president John Tuli stand accused of lying to auditors and falsifying paperwork in an effort to help former AOL partner PurchasePro meet revenue targets in 2001.

The three-month trial has been one of the longest in the history of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, known as the "rocket docket" for its speedy proceedings.

The case went to the six-man, six-woman jury Thursday morning.
