So we're taping this at the end of day seven of jury selection. So far, 15 jurors have been seated, eight men, seven women. The court is seeking 16 total jurors, so there will be 12 who will deliberate and four who will be alternates. These are some stats from our affiliate NBC10 in Boston about the jury poll after that first week of jury selection.

92% of potential jurors said they knew about the case. 60% said they'd formed an opinion, and 17% felt bias for or against Karen Reed. Those are tough percentages there for both sides.

And we took a look at that petition. In it, Reed claimed her retrial violates the double jeopardy clause, which prevents people from being tried twice for the same crime.

Remember, after her first trial, Reed's defense team said several jurors contacted them to say the jury had agreed unanimously to acquit Reed on charges of murder and leaving the scene of the crash, but had deadlocked on the manslaughter charge. In the petition to the Supreme Court, Reid's defense team argued that manslaughter charge should be the only one she should face this time around.

So what happened? The Supreme Court has refused to take up her case. It looks like Reid's trial is moving full steam ahead. Rachel, thanks for joining us. Thanks for having me.
