Michele Andersons trial in 2007 Carnation slayings starts Monday
"Michele Anderson wont face the death penalty if convicted of killing six members of her family in rural Carnation on Christmas Eve 2007 but the jurors who will decide her guilt or innocence arent allowed to know that.
Though a jury was chosen Jan. 13 for Andersons aggravated-first-degree-murder trial, the judge and attorneys in the case had to walk a strange little tightrope, careful not to violate state law by revealing her possible punishment during the jury-selection process.
King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg had initially sought the death penalty against Anderson, now 37, but he changed his mind in July following two other aggravated-murder trials in which separate juries did not impose death sentences...
...Andersons trial is expected to last six weeks. Opening statements, originally scheduled for Jan. 19, were postponed until Monday after a new potential witness came forward..."

Emotional testimony in trial of Michele Anderson, accused of killing 6 family members
"SEATTLE -- Michele Anderson, accused of killing six members of her family, faced a jury on Monday for the first time.
Andersons sister, Mary Victoria, took the stand and said her sister threatened to kill her parents in the past but she didnt take it seriously.
Mary Victoria said she did tell their parents about Andersons rants when they happened.
Who thinks family is going to kill family? So I didnt think it was serious, she was angry, Mary Victoria said.
The prosecution gave their opening statement Monday morning and then called the lead detective who was at the scene of the horrific slayings..."

2007 Carnation murders
"The Carnation murders were a mass murder that occurred on December 24, 2007, near Carnation, Washington, a small rural town 25 miles east of Seattle. The murders took place in the home of Wayne Scott Anderson and Judy Anderson....
Crime
According to testimony, McEnroe and Anderson armed themselves and drove their pickup to the home of her parents, Wayne Anderson, 60, and Judy Anderson, 61, on the afternoon of Dec. 24, 2007.
Once inside, McEnroe distracted Judy Anderson, who was wrapping Christmas gifts, while Michele shot her father. After Micheles gun jammed, McEnroe then killed Wayne and Judy Anderson.
The two then hid the bodies and carefully cleaned the home and waited for Michele Andersons older brother, Scott, his wife, Erica, both 32, and their two young children.
Once the family arrived, Michele Anderson shot her brother. McEnroe then shot Erica Anderson and the children, 5-year-old Olivia and 3-year-old Nathan, because he didnt want witnesses.
The bodies were discovered two days later when a co-worker of Judy Andersons went to the home to see why she was absent from work. While King County detectives were at the property, McEnroe and Michele Anderson drove up and were questioned and arrested.
Prosecutors told jurors the motive for the killings was money and Andersons belief she had been slighted and mistreated by her parents and brother...
