Were they able to sway the jury one way or another? Then we’ll shift to South Georgia where jury selection continues in The Killing of Ahmaud Arbery murder trial. Why is the process taking so long and will a defense argument that a jury of the defendant’s peers hold water? We’ll dig into it all and Vinnie theory of how jury selection is like a bowl of Pasta Fagioli. Get the latest updates on Court TV and CourtTV.com).
