Jury Selection - Day 2

NEWSChannel 2's Andy Jenks reports on the jury selection in the trial of John Healy, as it enters its second day.

-- Five jurors were excused today for reasons of either having been convicted of a prior crime or that they could not be fair or impartial.

-- Potential jurors are being questioned 16 at a time by Judge Michael Dwyer in a slow and detailed process. Judge Dwyer is asking questions such as:
<> Is anyone uncomfortable listening to a murder trial?
<> Do you know any of the 46 witnesses? (Dwyer proceeded to read all the names)
<> Has anyone sat on a criminal or civil jury before?

-- Healy is appearing before the jurors in a button down shirt and khaki pants. He is not handcuffed but is being surrounded by at least three guards at all times.

-- Potential jurors are returning from a five minute break and will be questioned by the defense and prosecution.
