Michael George Trial: Juror Dismissed

According to the daily update by the Macomb Daily Express, a male juror was let go after it was discovered that his wife is a cousin to someone working the prosecutor's office. That takes the jury down from 14 to 13. A jury of twelve members is necessary for the trial to continue.

The articles also notes that sister of victim Barbara George, the then-32-year-old wife of retailer and future convention organizer Michael George whose death is at the heart of the trial, testified as to her observations of the accused after his wife's passing and at her funeral. The two men who found the body also testified. The article describes the evidence against George as "nearly all circumstantial."
