Judge Rodney Melville, presiding over the Michael Jackson trial, said yesterday that he had a sufficient pool of about 250 prospective jurors; who were willing to sit through the expected six month trial.
This means that jury selection is moving on more quickly that originally expected.
Next Monday, prospective jurors will be individually questioned by the defence and the prosecution teams. The ultimate goal is to find a jury of twelve, with eight reserves.
