You haven't missed a thing

If you've gone out for lunch and wondered if you missed something, I'm sorry to say, but no --you haven't missed a thing.

In fact, the entire court room looks exactly as it had three hours ago; John Ford is still reading what appears to be the same document since 9:00 am this morning, the attorneys are still gathered at the front of the room privately interviewing jurors on a one-by-one basis, and the rest of the court room is shifting in their seats and discreetly looking at their watches.

You can't really blame them. It's been a long two days and if any of the remaining possible jurors are chosen, they could be seeing the inside of this courtroom for the next three to four weeks. And, while they may have the inside scoop to what's going on in one of the hottest trials in Memphis so far this year, they won't be able to talk about it to anyone.

By the way, in case you've forgotten where we are in the jury selection process, we are still deciding on that one last final juror. The woman they had brought up to review in my last blog didn't make the cut and they've since looked at a few others.

This last juror is set to fill seat 13 and it certainly seems to be unlucky. They have gone through about seven possible jurors since this morning. None of them have appealed to the attorneys.

They are now talking to man in his late 20s. Keep your fingers crossed...
