Prospective Jackson Jurors Answer Questions About Race, Religion and Abuse

Prospective jurors in the Michael Jackson molestation case were asked to fill out a seven-page questionnaire about their views on race and religion, and their knowledge of the King of Pop's history of child sex abuse accusations. Would-be jurors were also asked about their personal history with cancer and if they had ever been accused of inappropriate sexual behavior.

Jackson, 46, is accused of molesting a 13-year old former cancer patient and could face up to 30 years in prison. He faces 10 counts of child molestation and conspiring to commit extortion, child abduction and false imprisonment.

Prior to answering the questions, jurors received a note saying that the written process was designed to save them the embarrassment of answering the questions out loud. A copy of the questionnaire was made public on Wednesday by Santa Barbara County Superior Court Judge Rodney Melville. Out of a pool of 250 people 12 jurors and eight alternates will be assigned to the trial. Jury selection will resume on Monday.
