(MONTGOMERY, Ala.) - Jury selection for the retrial of Alabama's gambling corruption case is entering its third day in Montgomery.
Defense and prosecuting attorneys spent Monday and Tuesday interviewing 55 potential jurors. Another group of about 30 potential jurors is scheduled for interviews Wednesday.
A defense attorney for casino owner Milton McGregor, Bobby Segall, told potential jurors that the questions may sound off the wall, but they are designed to find a fair jury.
Attorneys have asked potential jurors if they use Twitter, own a smart phone, gamble regularly, own a gun, or identify with the Occupy Wall Street movement.
Attorneys expect to select a jury Thursday or Friday for the trial of McGregor and five others on charges accusing them of buying and selling votes for pro-gambling legislation.
