This is the jury selection process. The pool camera is only allowed to cover the Judge Beverly Cannone opening statements to the jury pool, which is the same each day.   The judge opens with her ruling regarding third party culprit, saying that the request by the defense (Alan Jackson and David Yannetti, Elizabeth Little) to include a statement that the victim was beaten and not struck by a vehicle would cause the burden of proof to be on the accused, which she will not do. She will allow the third party culprit defense to develop via questioning and competent evidence. (Prosecutors in the case: Assistant District Attorneys Adam Lally & Laura McLaughlin.) On the jury pool:  The pool is asked a series of questions: Do you know anyone on the list of witnesses/Do you have a financial interest in the case/Have you discussed the case/Have you formed an opinion about this case/Would serving be a hardship, etc. Then each comes to sidebar where the judge and the attorneys for both the prosecution and the defense interact with each juror. Each side can dismiss jurors for no cause, though that number is limited.  This is Day 1's opening statement to the jury by the judge. Day 2 and 3 of jury selection was very similar.  At the end of Week ONE, 12 jurors were selected. The court now needs alternate jurors which will be going through the selection process of Monday May 22.  For a background on the case, visit CantonCommunityTv.org where you can find the pre-hearings that took place over the course of a year.
