Jury selection got underway on Monday in Mingo County, in the murder trial of Timothy Kennedy. He’s facing charges in the death of West Virginia State Police Sgt. Cory Maynard in 2023. Judge Joshua Butcher has not issued a ruling on a change of venue motion, but decided to call in 100 jurors between yesterday and today. Kennedy’s lawyers have raised concerns that many jurors had made up their minds on his guilt. The defense requested the case be moved to McDowell county, but the judge is waiting to see if a panel of impartial jurors can be selected before making a ruling.
