Jurors Willing to Execute McVeigh
Timothy J. McVeigh’s jury includes a retiree who cried for bombing victims, a teacher who sees McVeigh as a “nice kid” and a property manager losing his hearing from Grateful Dead concerts, according to a list obtained by the Associated Press. All 12 jurors and six alternates said they would be willing to recommend execution, although several expressed reservations about the ultimate punishment. McVeigh faces the death penalty if convicted of the April 19, 1995, Oklahoma City federal building bombing that killed 168 people.
