In Jackson Mississippi the jury pool for Byron de La Beckwith's murder case remained all white as five men were selected. Beckwith, 43, ex Marine from Greenwood, is charged with lying in ambush to murder Medgar Evers, NAACP field secretary, shot outside his home last June. A dismissed prospective juror cited a relative killed in a 1948 robbery ambush and another noted Beckwith’s segregation letters as too extreme. The defense used five peremptory challenges, leaving seven.
