I agree. I think Delt's attitude is the natural human attitude. Meaning that of course the jury pool, as a whole, is forming and re-forming opinions as the "story" develops.
You're right that the task of the DA and the defense attorneys is to find jurors with an open mind. And it also points up why the DA should have been keeping public comments to a mimimum.
