A jury has been struck in the capital murder trial of Joshua
Russell. He is accused of killing Anniston Police Officer Justin Sollohub
during a chase in 2011.
Opening arguments will begin today.
Last month, a judge ruled jurors would not hear radio
traffic audio. That dramatic radio traffic includes Sollohub's final messages
to dispatchers, and an emotional "officer down" call. Jurors will be
able to watch an edited version of Russell's video statement to police.
The trial will be held in Lee County in an effort to select
an unbiased jury.
