ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Lee County held its first grand jury Monday.
The county also held its first jury selection, and this time looked much different than before.
WALB News 10 found out the measures they’re taking to help keep people safe from COVID-19 as the county begins resuming trials since they were paused due to the pandemic.
Jury selection started at The Bindery and then moved to the Lee County Courthouse.
District Attorney Lewis Lamb said they are holding jury selection at The Bindery because there’s not enough room at the courthouse. The Bindery is a part of the Oakland Library in Leesburg.
