One man declared he disliked Jackson and his whole family and thought Katherine Jackson's lawsuit blaming AEG for the singer's death is frivolous.
He was excused because his employer wouldn't pay for his jury service. Other prospects were less outspoken.

This judge is some piece of work! She is allowing people with MJ bias to stay in the jury pool despite The Jackson Family attorneys complaining about their biased statements! This judge needs to be taken off the case for pro AEG leanings!
