D.C. Sniper Trials | PBS NewsHour

GWEN IFILL:

Jury selection for the trial of 18-year-old alleged sniper, Lee Boyd Malvo, has now begun in Chesapeake, Va. The trial of his alleged accomplice, John Allen Muhammad, has been underway for three weeks in nearby Virginia Beach.

The men are on trial for two of ten murders that took place during a three-week killing spree in the Washington, D.C., area last October. They are also suspects in five other murder cases. For an update on these trials, we're joined by Sari Horwitz, an investigative reporter at the Washington Post. She is the co-author of the book, "Sniper: Inside the Hunt for the Killers Who Terrorized the Nation." Welcome, Sari.
