I live in Pittsburgh. Originally the trial was supposed to take place in 2020 but got pushed back due to covid.
Then the jury pool was absolutely massive. My roommate and I both got served juror summons. I didn’t have to go to the courthouse on my date, and he didn’t get called as a juror when he went down. I feel like they were related to this.
I was actually surprised they held the trial in the city, especially for a federal one. The wounds for this tragedy cut pretty deep here.
