Today the defense gets its turn for full voir dire of the “top 40” prospective jurors who were selected yesterday to advance to the next round of jury selection. The “lucky winners” are:
B7, B12, B29, B35, B37, B51, B61, B72, B76, B86, E6, E13, E22, E28, E40, E54, E73, G14, G29, G47, G63, G66, G81, H6, H7, H18, H29, H35, H69, H81, H86, I5, I19, I24, I33, I44, K80, K95, M75, P67
We’ve pulled together a compilation of our notes on these prospective jurors here: Zimmerman Jury Selection Profiles- “Top 40″ Advanced to Next Round.
Incidentally, if you’ve never had the opportunity to see an juror questionnaire, as referenced so many times in voir dire during the last week, I’ve made a sample questionnaire available at my Law of Self Defense blog post: Zimmerman Trial: Never seen a juror questionnaire? Here you go . . .
We also anticipate the return of State expert witness Tom Owens today at 2:00PM, to testify further on his analysis of background screams in the Witness #11 911 call. Mr. Ownens, you may recall, was the State’s speech expert who previously characterized the audio recording as “not really good evidence.” This is part of an as yet incomplete Frye hearing on whether Mr. Owens’ and other state audio expert can testify at trial. And, in the context of the Frye meeting, we have yesterday’s unofficial “comment of the day”:
I expect Mr. Owens may experience a grilling, indeed.
