Jury selection has begun in the retrial of a man accused of raping and strangling a fellow Eastern Michigan University student.
Twenty-one-year-old Orange Taylor III is charged with murder in the December 2006 death of 22-year-old Laura Dickinson. The first jury deadlocked.
The U.S. Education Department fined Eastern Michigan $357,500 for covering up the death. The case led to the removal of university President John Fallon and others.
