Mistrial. Rinse, repeat.

The voir dire is generally limited and the prosecution generally only has a limited number of strikes. They may have, in fact, been presented with worse candidates out of the pool.

Of course, the prosecutors may have exercised their judgment after interviewing the season ticket holder and the professor and found them to be favorable jurors (Maybe they are sickened by the stain on their work place or their team). It's easy to monday morning qb this stuff. If that's the best hope for a mistrial - I am far less concerned than others.

Report -- Former Penn State officials exchanged emails on Jerry Sandusky allegations in 2001 - ESPN

However, the three men opted not to alert authorities after speaking with "Joe," according to the report.

"After giving it more thought and talking it over with Joe yesterday, I am uncomfortable with what we agreed were the next steps. I am having trouble with going to everyone, but the person involved," read one of the emails, according to CNN.

So it was Joe Paterno that told them not to go to police. SHOCKER. So much for all those "JOE DID WHAT HE WAS SUPPOSED TO DO" bullshit. **** that clown, and I hope like hell they erase every bit of memory of that child molester and enablers from PSU. (especially Joe Paterno) Hope his family is sued for every last penny they own. I suspect they knew as well.
