None of us know the exact wording of what the prospective jurors were asked. None of us know exactly where this guy was in the process of becoming an FBI agent. So I can not be sure whether I agree with this judges ruling or not.

I agree more information with specifics would be beneficial, a cursory of this article would obviously cause both sides to feel they are correct and the Judge’s action at this late date would be warranted.
My gut feel is it is not, however.
Nor would I agree that this agent is now to be hung by his pinkies to satisfy anyone as you would seem to suggest.
I’m sure more info will be forthcoming or I would hope so at least. I’ll see what else I can find towards that end and post it.
I would also caution those reading this thread and comments that this site is all too oft frequented by folks who are dead set on getting death penalty convictions overturned by hook or by crook and would let the victims and their families be damned in their own pursuit of beating the penalty imposed at any cost.
All too true. Needless to say, the same can be said of the converse side of the argument.
