On May
5, Inner City
Press live
tweeted jury
selection Day
1, including
an HBO
staffer, here
Sitting in the
courtroom,
Inner City
Press noted
the presence
of Mark Geragos. On the
early
morning of May
6,
before 7 am,
the US
Attorney's
Office wrote
in that "the
defense team
appeared to
consult with
Mark Geragos," letter

On May
7, with
peremptory
challenged to
finalize
things set for
Friday,
the
pool of jurors
not excluded for
cause reached
45, including
a UN official
But on
May 9, Judge Subramanian
switched
it to Monday,
saying some
more might
drop out. Two
more were excluded:
295 for
an undocketed
email about
personal
safety,
apparently,
and 145 for
not disclosing suing
NYC. But the
Legal Aid
juror 131 remains
in, amid
evidentiary
rulings - thread
