Juror dismissed for bias in Kent State shootings trial
Douglas Watts, an Akron foreman, testified he had already decided against the plaintiffs in the 46 million civil suit. He admitted violating court orders by discussing the case and was replaced by alternate Mary L. Bazina. Watts said he did not recall calling the plaintiffs commies, though lawyers cited an anonymous tip. He said he was open-minded at the start but concerned with law and order.
