Derek Chauvin jury pool reaches 9; trial selection continues
Fox News
The jury pool in the forthcoming high-publicized trial of former Minneapolis police officer Drek Chauvin over the death of George Floyd increased to nine Monday as efforts to find impartial members continue to pose difficulties.
"I am gravely concerned with the news that broke on Friday," Eric Nelson told Hennepin County District Judge Peter Cahill. "The fact that this came in the exact middle of jury selection is perplexing to me, your honor." The first potential juror questioned Monday was quickly dismissed after volunteering that she had heard about the settlement and presumed it meant the city didn’t feel it would win the civil case.More Related News
