8th day of jury selection – a jury is not seated
Over the course of the day in the State v. Casey Anthony trial, there were four instances when a panel of 12 jurors could have been seated. Each time the number was about to reach “12″, the Defense used one of their back-strikes to knock the panel down to 11 potentials. (Judge Perry must have 12 persons to swear, having only 11 persons will not pass muster.)
As of the close of day today, there were 11 potential jurors left.
As far as the score, the defense has 2 back-strikes remaining; the State has 5 back-strikes remaining. Once all back strikes are used, it gives an advantage to the other side as they will be able to keep a juror who leans to their philosophy (i.e. pro death penalty for the state, anti-death penalty for the defense), without the other side back-striking them.
