Jurors selected for Hudson family murder trial
CHICAGO – The first full day of jury selection in the Chicago trial of the man accused of killing singer and actress Jennifer Hudson's family ended Monday without the seating of a full jury.
William Balfour is accused of killing Hudson's mother, brother and nephew. The 30-year-old Balfour faces a maximum life sentence if convicted.
Fourteen people were selected Monday to be among the 12 jurors and six alternates after nine hours of interviewing potential jurors one by one. The last four panelists are expected to be selected Tuesday.
