Summary

This document is a court transcript from March 11, 2022, detailing a colloquy during jury selection for a case involving sexual abuse of a minor. The judge denies a request for specific follow-up questions to a potential juror, reasoning that the defense had not made similar requests for another juror and that core questions of fairness had been addressed. An attorney, Ms. Sternheim, then challenges the judge on whether the juror was adequately questioned about the specific, sensitive nature of the case.

"Judge, you have asked certain things about the questionnaire, but I do not believe that you asked about the summary of the case which specifically says what this case is about, it is about sexual abuse of a minor, and did he just fly through that as well?"
