FORT HOOD (AP) — Jury selection enters its second week in the murder trial of the Army psychiatrist charged in the 2009 Fort Hood shooting rampage.
Six new potential jurors will be brought in from Army posts nationwide for questioning Monday for the Fort Hood trial of Maj. Nidal Hasan, who’s serving as his own attorney. Ten potential jurors remain from a group of 20 questioned last week, when jury selection began Tuesday.
