Jury selection continues in murder trial for Ohio police officer


In Columbus, Ohio, the process of selecting a jury in the case against Blendon Township Police Officer Connor Grubb extended into Tuesday. Grubb is facing trial for the fatal shooting of Ta’Kiya Young that occurred outside a Kroger store in August 2023.

The 31-year-old officer has been charged with multiple serious offenses, including four counts of murder, four counts of felonious assault, and two counts of involuntary manslaughter. These charges are connected to the deaths of 21-year-old Young and her unborn child.

Last week, potential jurors were asked to complete an extensive questionnaire with roughly 100 inquiries. These questions probed their knowledge of the case and opinions on topics such as law enforcement and the Black Lives Matter movement.
