On Trial
Three more jurors selected
Three more jurors were approved by lawyers this afternoon in the capital murder trial of Ricky Javon Gray.
Two of these three jurors are men. One is a woman. One of the men is a parole officer for the federal government. The other man indicated during questioning earlier in the day that he had served on a jury before as a foreman.
Jury selection for a pool of 28 prospective jurors is expected to conclude within the hour. Prosecutors and defense lawyers will be given six “strikes” to use to disqualify prospective panelists from the pool, narrowing the number to 16 jurors who will hear the trial.
Opening statements are set to begin tomorrow morning.
