“What’s the racial make up of the jury?”

Given the length of time they are spending on this verdict, I wonder what the Species make up is....

I read the other day that there are only 2 whites on the jury.

“What’s the racial make up of the jury?”

NASHVILLE - A jury has been seated in the trial of torture-slaying suspect Letalvis Cobbins.

His fate will be decided by five black women, two black men, two white women, two white men and one Asian man.

It took only a few minutes for both sides to settle on four alternates. They are all male. One is black. Three are white.

The jurors will report to the Metro courthouse in Nashville on Sunday afternoon to be bused to Knox County, where they will be sequestered throughout the trial.

Earlier today, an attorney for Cobbins told jurors it was his brother and an uncharged buddy who killed Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.
