Police say tips from other mid
shipmen led them to Zamora.
Dressed in a navy dress accen
tuated with gold buttons, Zamora
sat quietly during Monday’s pro
ceedings. Afterward, she turned to
her family seated in the front row
and mouthed the words, “I love
you” before being ushered back to
her jail cell.
Casey said the movie will dam
age Zamora’s case because some of
the events are based on Graham’s
alleged confession, which has
been printed in The Dallas Morn
ing News. In Casey’s opinion, the
document will not be admissible
at the trial.
On cross-examination, KXAS at
torney Chip Babcock pointed out
that Evans’ client, Norman Allison,
was cleared of murder and weapons
charges in 1994 after a made-for-TV
movie aired about David Koresh
and the Branch Davidians. Allison
was a part of the Davidian group.
“It’s hard to know if that jury was
fair and impartial or not. I person
ally agree with their verdict on my
client,” Evans said.
KXAS attorneys argued that the
number of people who will watch
the movie is less than 15 percent of
Tarrant County’s prospective jury
pool and that would leave more
than 1 million potential jurors who
had not seen it.
“Among the million people who
haven’t seen the movie, Miss Zamo
ra oughtn’t have any trouble finding
12, just 12 to decide the case fairly,”
said attorney Peter Kennedy.
Attorney Jay Ethington, a de
fense witness, said some of his
high-profile clients such as ath
letes had gotten fair trials despite
intense media attention.
He noted there are legal remedies
available to the court to deal with pre
trial publicity such as individual ques
tioning of prospective jurors, addi
tional strikes in jury selection and
instruction to the panel to disregard
media reports and other publicity.
The network is billing its program
as a true-crime movie based on aTexas
Monthly article about the two cadets
“charged in a chilling murder pact.”
“It’s a very powerful story, and it’s
a cautionary tale,” said Linda
DeKoven, NBC’s senior vice presi
dent for movies.
Simpson judge denies mistrial request
/olume 103
SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) —
The judge in the O.J. Simpson case
denied another defense mistrial re
quest Monday, dismissing fears that
a juror poisoned the panel against
Simpson before she was removed
for misconduct.
The juror, who had been the
only black on the panel, was re
moved Friday for failing to disclose
that her daughter works for the
district attorney’s office that un
successfully prosecuted Simpson
on murder charges.
Superior Court Judge Hiroshi Fu-
jisaki rejected the written request,
as he had an earlier spoken request
Friday, saying he remedied the
problem by appointing an alternate
and ordering the panel to start de
liberating anew.
The reconstituted panel delib
erated six hours Monday and re
cessed for the night after sending
a note to the judge asking for a
readback of testimony. It was not
revealed what testimony the jurors
requested.
Also rejected by the judge was
defense attorney Robert Baker’s re
quest to question the jurors to find
out what 62-year-old Rosemary
Caraway told them before she was
bounced. Fujisaki said Baker could
question the jurors after they reach
a verdict.
Baker said research over the
weekend showed Caraway had
scratched out on her jury question
naire an answer that would have di
vulged her daughter’s ties to the
prosecutor’s office.
Asked if anybody close to her
had legal training, she began an an
swer regarding a relative but
crossed it out, he said, adding that
the scratched-out words were “Dis
trict Attorney’s Office.”
On a question in which she
was asked if any close friends or
relatives were employed by the at
torney general or the district at
torney, Baker said Caraway
checked “no.”
Baker said the defense also
found that before moving to her
present job with the director of spe
cial operations in the district attor
ney’s office, the woman’s daughter
worked for two of the prosecutors in
the failed criminal case against
Simpson, Bill Hodgman and
Christopher Darden.
“This is a direct, deliberate at
tempt to mislead and I think it’s an
outrage,” Baker told the judge. “It’s
not inadvertent,
and we are enti
tled to a mistri
al. This is mis
conduct.”
But plaintiff
lawyer Daniel
Petrocelli insist
ed Caraway
“was an honest
and conscien
tious juror who
overlooked a question
“They’ll do anything.”
In the written motion, the
fense also sought a mistrial

that elsewhere on her form, she

“The irony is if you look at this ju
