DURING THE LAST TWO 1/2 DAYS.
AFTER SPENDING MORE THAN 10
HOURS PICKING A JURY, THE
GUESSING GAME BEGINS.
DID PROSECUTOR SETH TIEGER AND
DEFENSE ATTORNEY STEW MATHEWS
GET THE MIX OF MEN AND WOMEN
BOTH SIDES WANT TO DECIDE RAY
TENSING'S FATE.
TENSING IS THE FORMER UC POLICE
DUBOSE DURING THIS 2015 TRAFFIC
STOP.
PROSECUTORS CALL IT ***,
WHILE TENSING CLAIMS HE WAS
JUSTIFIED IN FIRING HIS GU
DECIDING WHICH SIDE DID BEST
DURING JURY SELECTION IS
COMPLICATED, SAYS DEFENSE
ATTORNEY JAY CLARK, WHO'S NOT
INVOLVED IN THE TENSING CASE.
>> IT'S REALLY NOT JURY
SELECTION.
YOU CAN SEE IT'S JURY EXCLUSION
TODD: CLARK SAYS JURORS WHO SEEM
EAGER TO SERVE CAN BE ESPECIALLY
PROBLEMATIC.
THOSE ARE THE ONES YOU HAVE
TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT, THE ONES
TOO MUCH.
TODD: BECAUSE WHY?
>> MY EXPERIENCE IS THEY USUALLY
HAVE AN AGENDA.
BE IT, IN THIS CASE, FOR EITHER
SIDE.
PEOPLE THAT ARE TOO EAGER TO BE
THERE, IT KIND OF MAKES YOU GO
I DON'T KNOW.
TODD: IN ADDITION TO QUESTIONS
PEOPLE ARE WONDERING WHY
DUBOSE'S LOVED ONES HAVE NOT
COURTHOUSE.
AFTER TODAY'S PROCEEDINGS, I
SPOKE TO DUBOSE'S SISTER, TERINA
MEDIA TO WORK.
ALLEN BECAME EMOTIONAL AS SHE
EXPLAINED HER FAMILY HAS
SUFFERED ANOTHER SUDDEN TRAGEDY
ATTENDING TOMORROW'S OPENING
STATEMENTS
AS FOR RAY TENSING'S PARENTS,
THEY WERE BACK IN COURT TODAY.
I CAN TELL YOU TENSING HELPED
HIS ATTORNEYS FINALIZE THEIR
PICKS FOR THE JURY.
HE THEN WATCHED EACH OF THE MEN
AND WOMEN WHO WILL HEAR ALL THE
EVIDENCE, AS THEY QUIETLY LEFT
THE SHOOTING SCENE IN MOUNT
