Jury Selection In Christian-Newsom Murder Accessory Case Apr 7, 2008 VolunteerTV.com KNOXVILLE, Tenn (WVLT) -- A jury is being selected in federal court to decide whether Eric DeWayne Boyd is guilty of hiding one of the four suspects in the carjacking and murder of a you Knox County couple. Judge Tom Varlan is telling prospective jurors up front that this trial will probably last all this week and into next week. Some would-be jurors were sent home quickly for obvious reasons. One was a close friend or the victim, and another was a high school classmate of the prosecutor. But for most, the question of whether they will sit on this jury is not answered so easily. After waiting more than a year for the first of five trials they'll have to endure, the victims' families are waiting again. This time, they must wait for a jury to be selected. That process is moving very slowly in Boyd's case. Here's why:
In addition to Davison, Letalvis Cobbins, Vanessa Coleman, and George Thomas are also charged. They are set to go to trial in four separate death penalty cases beginning next year. In Boyd's federal case, jury selection is expected to last much of Tuesday, and evidence could start being heard by Wednesday. Source: http://www.volunteertv.com/home/head...17357069.html# |
