[Oregonmama]

Has anyone - Judge Kyle or attorneys - mentioned sequestration? Or change of venue?

nothing mentioned yet but I was going to post that the venue might need to change if they cant find jurors

First three potential jurors return Thursday. Fourth believes #marksieversontrial is guilty. That potential juror is going home. #trialtweets #teresasievers

I would love to be in that courtroom and look at Mark's face when a potential juror thinks he is guilty!

The only thing I could find on YouTube was 4:12 from this morning, by NBC2, Titled: Mark Sievers jury selection: Day one.

Looks like they are not going live with it, but will later post it on YouTube?

Always interesting people's memories of what they saw or read about the case. We've heard the home was in Cape Coral, the murder happened a year ago, etc. It's clear some PJs haven't retained much about the case. #trialtweets #marksieversontrial #nbc2courtcoverage #teresasievers

There's 11 more potential jurors to question. Judge considering timing of it all now. Defense offered "we can stay" and judge laughed. "Oh we're staying." #trialtweets #marksieversontrial #nbc2courtcoverage #teresasievers

A lot of potential jurors in this group admit to having followed from the beginning. To me, it's been more than in #jimmyrodgersontrial so far. #trialtweets #marksieversontrial #teresasievers #nbc2courtcoverage

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
State begins by saying they have some witness issues regarding one of the days of testimonies but besides that, they are ready to go.

Defense says they are ready.

Jury selection will begin once Judge Kyle gets through the other cases.

Sandra Rodriguez on Twitter

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
Jury selection will begin with potential jurors being asked if they can sit through a lengthy trial.

The Rodgers trial took roughly 4 weeks, Mark Sievers trial is expected to last longer.

Sandra Rodriguez on Twitter

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
Judge Kyle has called for a brief recess while prosecution and defense prepare to begin jury selection for Mark Siever trial.

50 potential jurors are set to begin with initial questioning.

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
#MarkSieversTrial: Jury selection is starting, 50 potential jurors are entering the courtroom.

Side note: Mark Sievers came out earlier today in his red prison jumpsuit, now he's wearing a suit.

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
Judge Kyle says this trial might take 5 weeks or maybe a little more and asked the potential jurors who would find it difficult to serve on a trial of this length.

So far 26 potential jurors have said it would be difficult for them.

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
21 potential jurors have been released for cause.

One juror with a medical condition said the temperature in the courtroom is too cold and could cause him to become ill.

Sandra Rodriguez on Twitter

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
Judge Kyle is reading to the potential jurors what the allegations against Mark Sievers are.

When asked if they were familiar with this case, roughly 20 people raised their hands. That's the majority of the remaining potential jurors.

Sandra Rodriguez on Twitter

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
2 more potential jurors said they've heard of the case. The remaining 6 that have not were dismissed, asked to return Thursday at 1:30 p.m.

Sandra Rodriguez (@SandraR_media) Tweeted:
Now each potential juror is being questioned individually on what they know about this murder case and if they have any preconceived notions.

That makes 18 returning from the first 50 for more questions, the first one likely being their perspective on the death penalty. #trialtweets #marksieversontrial #teresasievers #nbc2courtcoverage

I lost count on where we stand but some jurors were told to come back Thursday or Friday. So, a long road ahead to finding the 12 for #SieversTrial. @winknews

Currently waiting on potential jurors to congregate and be brought upstairs to the courtroom. If you hadn't noticed, court coverage (and lots of news) is about rushing to get somewhere and then waiting. #trialtweets #hurryupandwait #nbc2courtcoverage
