Jurors selected; trial to start
Three remaining alternates chosen to hear murder case
MORRISON – Opening arguments will begin Monday in the long-awaited Whiteside County trial of Nicholas T. Sheley, who is charged with robbing and beating an elderly rural Sterling man to death in late June 2008.
It took more than 3 hours Friday to pick three alternate jurors – two men and a woman – to join the jury of eight men and four women who had been selected this week.
The jury includes a warehouse foreman, certified nursing assistant, a retiree, a hospital maintenance worker, and a farmer.
