Juror 343, a man. Works in finance, assisting customers straightening out investments. Company says would pay him if he served, no hardship

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 1h 1 hour ago
Juror 342, a young man, is married to a real estate attorney. His brother is a veteran @bostonpolice officer.#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 1h 1 hour ago
He helps people with financial investment issues, but no one quite grasps what his job is. He gets that a lot, he says.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
His wife is an attorney, in real estate. His brother and sister’s husband are Boston cops, working in the North End.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
Would give them weight. “We have to trust our police and law enforcement, trust that they are working in an honest way.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
He believes Tsarnaev is guilty . “And I think the punishment should be death. Personally, I believe it takes the degree to another level.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
His younger sister was at a bar near the finish line. “She was running across the finish line, hysterical, had no idea what was happening.”

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 1h 1 hour ago
His sister was in a bar at the finish line when the bombs went off. "She was hysterical ..."#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 1h 1 hour ago
"She was running across the finish line and no idea what was happening."#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
Trying to get in touch with his brother, the cop, but he wasn't working

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 1h 1 hour ago
Juror 343 slams #Tsarnaev: "I think the punishment should be death," he hisses.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 1h 1 hour ago
"There were so many lives affected ... These folks that were at the finish line will have to live every day now with that."#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
He thinks of people who lost legs. “there are so many lives affected…folks who were at the finish line have to wake up like that every day”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
He's allowed to leave.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 1h 1 hour ago
O'Toole gets him out of the room before it goes any further. That was intense ...#Tsarnaev kept his cool.

A much more mellow Juror 345 is a female vet tech. She may help save lives, but she's ready to take that of #Tsarnaev.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
Juror 345, a woman, was a radiologist not works as an assistant vet. Posts opinions on Facebook, like how parents should get kids vaccinated

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
She’s unsure on Tsarnaev’s guilt, but leaning toward guilty. Could put aside beliefs. “I have a very scientific mind” and would search facts

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 59m 59 minutes ago
"If you purposely kill someone I don't see why you shouldn't get the death penalty," she tells O'Toole.#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 56m 56 minutes ago
Still, she says, as if #Tsarnaev is not feet away, "I want to know what influenced him. I want to know what caused his actions."

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
She didn't know Krystle Campbell, but went to funeral cuz heard Westboro Baptist Church was going to protest, and she would protest that.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
She supports death penalty, but needs 100 percent assurance he deserves it. Scored her beliefs a 9 of 10

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 1h 1 hour ago
“If you purposely kill someone, I don’t see why you shouldn’t get the death penalty.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 59m 59 minutes ago
“I would want to know the facts of why he did it. I want to know what influenced him, what caused his actions.” If pushed, she'd vote life

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 56m 56 minutes ago
As radiologist, worked with Dr. Russell, the father of Katherine Russell, Tamerlan's wife. Nothing stands out though.


Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 53m 53 minutes ago
She once worked with the surgeon father of the woman who was married to Tamerlan #Tsarnaev - Dzhokhar's sister-in-law.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 51m 51 minutes ago
Dr. Russell told her he was estranged from his daughter and "was not a fan of his brother" she said for the benefit of #Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 54m 54 minutes ago
She knew Dr. Russell estranged from his daughter Katherine, didn't like Tamerlan, who she referred to as "his brother."

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 54m 54 minutes ago
“he was aggravated one day, I guess he had a tiff with his daughter over the son in law.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 52m 52 minutes ago
Someone in courtroom sneezed. She stops to say "Bless you."

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 48m 48 minutes ago
Dr. Russell once came to work "grouchy" after fighting with his daughter about Tamerlan.#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 45m 45 minutes ago
Very hard to gauge what if any emotional reaction #Tsarnaev has when his late brother is spoken about.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 47m 47 minutes ago
“I believe in the death penalty for intentional murder, yes. I would not vote for the death penalty until I knew all the circumstances.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 43m 43 minutes ago
Clarke's concern with juror: If she finds him guilty, her standards automatically translate into death.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 44m 44 minutes ago
Defense attorney raises "upbringing" and "learning disability" as possible mitigating factors favoring life.#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 45m 45 minutes ago
#Tsarnaev taps his left foot under the table.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 43m 43 minutes ago
Last question, would serving be a hardship? “I won’t get paid, but there won’t be a financial hardship.” “I want your life.”

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 42m 42 minutes ago
Juror says she'll survive financially if she loses her paycheck serving. "I want your life," #Tsarnaev attorney Judy Clarke deadpans.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 42m 42 minutes ago
She's allowed to leave. Before next jury, prosecutor seems peeved Clarke refers to Dr. Russell as potential witness. Says they didn't know.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 40m 40 minutes ago
Juror 346, a woman, speaks with an accent, maybe Spanish. She’s a home healthcare aide, but says can tweak schedule. “I make my own hours.”

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 40m 40 minutes ago
Our next juror, 346, is a Hispanic woman and home care aide.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 37m 37 minutes ago
Says Tsarnaev guilty, but could be open. “Depending on the evidence I could make sure he is guilty, before going to the death penalty part.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 34m 34 minutes ago
Juror seems to be against death penalty, but a little unsure of process. She's allowed to leave.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 33m 33 minutes ago
Next is juror 348, but juror apparently wrote that knows a witness, so they are just going to skip that one.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 32m 32 minutes ago
We were expecting Juror 348 next. That person was dismissed without being called in.#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 32m 32 minutes ago
Followers eager for #Tsarnaev updates, he's very subdued this morning. His utter detachment from the past 147 jurors is perplexing.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 30m 30 minutes ago
Juror 349, job is product development for women’s clothing. Designs, colors. She’s wearing all black. With a silver necklace.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 31m 31 minutes ago
Juror 349, a woman, asks if she can run back and collect her reading glasses. She does product development for women's clothes.#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 29m 29 minutes ago
But does not look like a slave to fashion per se.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 28m 28 minutes ago
Says guilty, but “I don’t know what all the charges are, so I can’t say he’s guilty bcuz I don’t know what the charges are, or the evidence”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 28m 28 minutes ago
Juror saying so much media attention, though, the Watertown shootout, "I watched that on television."

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 26m 26 minutes ago
She asks O'Toole if the media is watching her. He gestures to pool reporters @Laurel_Sweet and @MiltonValencia, notes live feed. #Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 28m 28 minutes ago
Juror was asking if that live feed is for journalists. Judge says yes. And there's two right there, pointing at me and @Laurel_Sweet. Smile!

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 26m 26 minutes ago
She also wants to know if the media will be allowed in the courtroom as the trial is happening. Yes. "Hmmmn," she says.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 23m 23 minutes ago
Pros. asking what her concern with media was, and she wants to knew if jurors’ names will be public. Judge says yes, after trial.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 23m 23 minutes ago
"hmm," she says.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 25m 25 minutes ago
Chakravarty asks her what the problem is. As a juror, she wants anonymity.#Tsarnaev

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 23m 23 minutes ago
O'Toole assures her she's just Juror 349 for now, but when the trial ends her name would "probably" be released.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 19m 19 minutes ago
Bruck asking if she'd be nervous of criticism of her decision: “Whatever decision we made, as a jury, I would stand by it.”

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 18m 18 minutes ago
The juror is now expressing fear media will follow her home during the trial. "No!" O'Toole rules for anyone getting ideas.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 20m 20 minutes ago
She's saying her biggest concern is media following jurors during the trial. Judge saying that won't happen (it won't)

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 20m 20 minutes ago
“Once it is over, if I was on it, I would hope I would just go back to my own life," she says.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 20m 20 minutes ago
Bruck was asking about what she read on case b4 she came here, and it was a story on Judy Clarke, big defense lawyer, represented Unabomber

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 20m 20 minutes ago
"She's been involved in some big trials," she says.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 19m 19 minutes ago
On the day of the bombings she was in New York City for her brother, who was having brain surgery.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 17m 17 minutes ago
After lengthy questioning, juror is allowed to leave.

Clarke rests her hand on back of #Tsarnaev, gives him an affectionate squeeze. He fluffs his curls.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 14m 14 minutes ago
Juror 350, a professional exterminator, speaks with a thick accent. He draws a rare look from #Tsarnaev.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 15m 15 minutes ago

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 11m 11 minutes ago
He says he's from Puerto Rico. And get this, "I'm aware the media is crazy." He cites snowstorm coverage as example.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 11m 11 minutes ago
Juror says media is “crazy” the way they hype things like storms, “they do that with everything...journalists just lying to get some credit"

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 11m 11 minutes ago
To quote my pal @HowieCarrShow, you can trust me Juror 350, I'm not like the rest.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 8m 8 minutes ago
Juror saying can be open, Judge is explaining process, and juror saying we have a system in Puerto Rico like that too.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 5m 5 minutes ago

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 5m 5 minutes ago

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 9m 9 minutes ago
On death penalty, he supports. Said saw too much crime, violence in Puerto Rico, death penalty would help.

Laurel J. Sweet @Laurel_Sweet · 36s 37 seconds ago
Juror says the death penalty is frequently discussed in Puerto Rico which has been plagued by violent crime.#Tsarnaev

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 9m 9 minutes ago
“There are some cases needed to show, or send a message. How awful those cases are, they deserve the death penalty.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 6m 6 minutes ago
Bruck was asking if this would be hardship, juror says would take “day by day.” Judge says no, “If you’re in, you’re in.”

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 5m 5 minutes ago
Juror saying with that, could still serve. Everyone would have to serve. He could deal with it.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 3s 4 seconds ago
What do you mean by send a message? “We are in the United States, and we do not tolerate this behavior.”

She’s against death penalty, but in big cases, like this one, she sees reason for it. She gets it. She’s just against it, morally.

Milton Valencia @MiltonValencia · 2m 2 minutes ago
“I don’t know if I can make a decision responsible for the death of another person, even if they’ve committed a horrible crime.”
