The trial of a man charged with killing an abortion protester and a business owner will stay in Michigan's Shiawassee County for now.
Judge Gerald Lostracco will try to seat a jury starting Feb. 23. A different county is possible if jury selection is unsuccessful.
Lostracco discussed the issue in court Tuesday. Shiawassee County prosecutors fear residents may have strong opinions about James Pouillon, (POOL'-yuhn) who was fatally shot while protesting abortion outside Owosso High School in September.
He was well known in Owosso for holding up signs of aborted fetuses.
Harlan Drake is charged with killing Pouillon and Mike Fuoss (FOOSE), a gravel company owner. Drake's lawyer is pursuing an insanity defense.
