Jury questioning begins in Anna Nicole Smith case
Court Alerts
Jury questioning is slated to begin Monday in Los Angeles in the drug conspiracy trial of Anna Nicole Smith's doctors and her lawyer-boyfriend.
Superior Court Judge Robert Perry says questionnaires filled out by prospective jurors show most of them know something about the former Playboy model's life and death. Jury questioning will help determine how much they know and what they think about the charges.
Perry hopes to have a panel seated in two days. Opening statements are scheduled for Wednesday.
Dr. Sandeep Kapoor, Dr. Khristine Eroshevich and Howard K. Stern have pleaded not guilty to conspiring to illegally provide Smith with massive amounts of opiates and sedatives. They are not charged in her 2007 overdose death in Florida.
