On Tuesday none of the eight prospective jurors questioned were approved. 'The problem is, it's not possible to do one without doing the other,' said Ted Sampsell-Jones, a professor at the Mitchell Hamline School of Law. Two jurors were then approved on Wednesday, bringing the total back to nine. PORAC declined an interview request from Mother Jones. Her selection came just before lunch on a day that had started un-promisingly with three potential jurors excused.
None of the prospective judges questioned were placed in the pool of approved ones.
