Juror selection continues in Sandusky's trial Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky and his attorney Joe Amendola enter the Centre County Courthouse as the second day of jury selection begins in his child sex abuse trial on June 6 in Bellefonte, Pa. By Msnbc.com staff and wire services After a fast-paced first day, jury selection resumed Wednesday in the child sex abuse trial of former Penn State University assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky. By the end of the day Tuesday, nine jurors had been selected at the central Pennsylvania courthouse. Jury selection had begun with more than 200 people reporting. Five men and four women, all white, were chosen, including a retired bus driver, a Penn State student, a high school teacher, an engineer and a Wal-Mart employee. Cleland said that unless ties to witnesses or Sandusky were strong, relationships such as hers would not mean she could not serve on the jury, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported. The lawyers set to argue the child sex abuse case arrived in court Wednesday to complete jury selection. Defense lawyer Joe Amendola arrived with Sandusky just after 8:15 a.m. and said he's confident the nine jurors already picked will give "us a fair shake." Lead prosecutor Joseph McGettigan, Pennsylvania's senior deputy attorney general, said that jury selection was "so far, so good." Seven more jurors need to be picked, including four alternates. Jurors are being chosen from among people who live in the State College area, where Penn State's main campus is located. Cleland told potential jurors that he would not sequester them once the trial begins. He said he expected the trial to run until the end of the month. "I need you to all have an open mind," Judge John Cleland told jurors on Tuesday, according to PennLive.com. 9 jurors chosen so far in Jerry Sandusky trial Some of the accusers are expected to testify. Sandusky has repeatedly denied the charges. Prosecutors have obtained multiple incriminating and "bizarre" letters that Sandusky allegedly wrote to one of his accusers, who is known as Victim #4, NBC News reported Tuesday. The case has drawn intense media attention, with about two dozen television trucks drawn up outside the courthouse.
