2 for 2 on seating jurors this morning.

I'm 30 minutes behind on the stream though.

we're up to 10 jurors seated

I believe they said they need the 12 jurors & 2 alternates... so I think we're 4 jurors away from being able to get this trial started

sounds like the jurors will be sequestered during jury deliberations but not during the trial itself

also... Rekeita said the prosecution apparently asked for the up-charge on the possible punishments... meaning if the defendant is found guilty then she could face a much higher sentence than what the sentencing guidelines suggest should 1-900-JUDGE agree with the prosecution's request

She was on either Tuesday or Wednesday. I only watched for a short while though.

they're calling back a juror who was seated back on day 1 for extra questioning

we may go back down to 9 jurors if they find reason to strike this guy

it's the Target manager who had worked a 14-hour shift the night before he was originally up on the stand and member of a 90s grunge band

YouTube chat is terrible

Rekieta put up a poll about Judge Chu (1-900-JUDGE)... and the chat is voting that it simps hard for the judge

also... Target manager has apparently been allowed to remain on the jury

the issue was concerns about the judge verbally using his name on the record and that it is now out there

oh goodness... this potential juror... 1st year law student who works in city management and believes there needs to be criminal justice reform and more equity needed in criminal justice



defense attorney still questioning her... not sure why the defense hasn't struck her already (ETA: other than to get more of her BS on the record so it can't be argued when he moves to strike her)

ETA2: potential juror has an unfavorable opinion of Blue Lives Matter... get her off the stand now... send her home... keep her far away from this jury

defense down to its final strike... just struck a woman who seemed to be a good defense juror... until she said on her questionnaire that a defendant who doesn't take the stand makes her wonder what the defendant has to hide

current potential juror saying police "murdered" her uncle

and somehow the judge forwarded this juror to the attorneys for further questioning instead of immediately striking her

ETA: nevermind... juror struck for cause and no objection to the judge doing that from the prosecution (obviously the defense wouldn't object to getting rid of that potential juror)
