WACO, Texas (AP) — A jury has been seated in the federal trial of a soldier accused of planning to bomb Ford Hood troops.
Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo wore a mask covering his nose and mouth all day Monday during the jury selection in a Texas courtroom.
He’s been accused of biting through his lip and spitting blood on authorities escorting him after a court hearing last month.
His defense attorney, Zachary Boyd, asked potential jurors earlier Monday if they had a problem with Abdo’s mask. Nobody raised a hand.
