Judge excuses hundreds of prospective jurors in Cutts case

By Beacon Journal staff report

CANTON: A judge has excused nearly half of the 800 prospective jurors called potential jurors in the murder trial of Bobby Cutts Jr.

Stark County Common Pleas Judge Charles Brown said about 350 prospective jurors were excused based solely on responses given to a questionnaire mailed last month.

No reason was given for the decision. Attorneys are under a gag order preventing them from commenting on the case.

Jury selection is expected to continue Jan. 23 as the remaining jurors are questioned on pretrial publicity issues and their thoughts on the death penalty.

Testimony is expected to begin Feb. 4. Cutts, 30, has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder and burglary charges in connection with the June slaying of his girlfriend, Jessie Marie Davis and her unborn fetus.
