And cosbys defense attorney accused the prosecution of a quote, systematic exclusion of africanamericans. The claim was made last night when Montgomery County da david steele struck two potentially africanamerican jurors. We were trying to get fair and impartial jurors as i said before the city and county of pittsburgh and Allegheny County the people are remarkable and the sacrifices they have made. And steele says the reason the second jury was struck was she was a former Police Officer involved in a scandal. And the judge would side with the prosecution for now. And so far seven men and four women, three white and four africanamerican. And a pool of jurors have been brought in and are being questioned with judge oneal. And they will head into oneonone questioning and possibly seated and then 12 jurors and six alternates will travel to Montgomery County and decide if he is guilty of sexual accident former employee, andrea constand. And we are not sure how far the fireworks of today will impact the jury until they go into questioning today. Bob brooks channel 6 action news. Thank you.
