Opening arguments begin Wednesday followed by testimony in this high-profile case
The 7 man, 7 woman jury will hear opening arguments on Wednesday morning, 24 years after the shootings JB Beasley and Tracie Hawlett.
Slower than expected questioning of jurors coupled with a broken air conditioning system that sent jurors home early Monday contributed to the selection process going deep into Tuesday afternoon. A lengthy trial had been anticipated, with deliberations expected mid-next week. However, this could change if the testimony takes place this Saturday and Monday, a state holiday.
