Any news on "how" the jury selection is going?
I'm just getting old articles over here - and thought maybe someone in the U.S. will find something recent.

TIA if you can! :)

@Niner :

I've read articles from three days ago discussing this case. From what I can tell, none of them discuss how the jury selection is going.

I'll keep looking. If I find anything regarding jury selection, I'll post it.
 
Someone mentioned that Monday, 10/11 is a Holiday in the U.S. - so had to look & see when Pankey was back in court. And yep - he's back on Tuesday.

I just read an article that jury selection would all week (that would be last week) & trial should be starting today - but unfortunately, I'm not finding an updated articles on what happened in jury selection. So I'm going to that trial starts today - and if someone finds anything about jury selection, i.e. how alternates, men & women (?), etc. please post! :)
