Jury selection continues after Moussaoui outburst

A US federal judge is trying to turn the courtroom misbehaviour of confessed al-Qaida conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui into a useful tool for picking the jury that will decide whether he is put to death or imprisoned for life.

Five hundred potential jurors from northern Virginia got a taste yesterday of what his sentencing trial might entail: Moussaoui was kicked out of court four times as a month of jury selection got under way.
