LOS ANGELES : Illness of Denny Juror Forces One-Day Recess
The trial of two men accused of attempting to kill trucker Reginald O. Denny was recessed Monday after a juror called in complaining of severe sinus problems. Superior Court Judge John W. Ouderkirk decided against seating an alternate juror because the ill panelist said he should be able to return today.
Damian Monroe Williams, 20, and Henry Keith Watson, 29, are also charged with assaulting or robbing seven other people at Florence and Normandie avenues as rioting broke out last year.
