Jury Selection: Day 3

|

A young man may be hit with a double whammy. He just finished serving on a jury at 26th and Cal two weeks ago.

Another possible juror said on questionnaire "most politicians are motivated by ego control and money". He then told judge he can be fair.

A TV music show host and former DJ for Q101 was among this morning's group of potential jurors.

The man said the topic of Blagojevich did come up on his radio show but did not recall if he expressed his own opinion regarding the case.

UPDATE 3:42PM
Approximately 50 people have been selected for the jury pool in the trial for Rod Blagojevich.   That number could be narrowed down by the end of today or early tomorrow.  Nearly ninety people have been questioned since Thursday.
