Jury selection in 2nd day in Katrina shootings
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Potential jurors are being questioned for a second day in the trial of five current or former New Orleans police officers charged in deadly shootings of unarmed residents on a bridge in Hurricane Katrina's chaotic aftermath.
Roughly 70 potential jurors were questioned Wednesday about the case without anyone being seated.
Five former officers already have pleaded guilty to participating in a cover-up involving the fatal shootings of two people and wounding of four others on the Danziger Bridge after the 2005 storm.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Four other officers were indicted last year on charges stemming from the shootings, while two police investigators were charged in the alleged cover-up.
One of those investigators will be tried separately. The trial for the other five indicted officers is expected to last up to eight weeks.
