TAVARES, Florida (AP) -- Potential jurors were questioned Monday for the
murder trial of a convicted sex offender accused of kidnapping, raping and
burying alive 9-year-old Jessica Lunsford.
John Evander Couey, 47, appeared in court wearing a gray suit as officials
began quizzing 284 potential jurors. Jessica's father, Mark Lunsford, sat in
court behind the prosecutors' table, across the courtroom from Couey, a
former neighbor.
The girl's disappearance and the discovery of her body in March 2005
prompted tougher laws for sex offenders, shocked and outraged residents of
rural Citrus County and was chronicled by news outlets nationwide.
Couey is charged with first-degree murder, sexual battery, kidnapping and
burglary. He has pleaded not guilty, although investigators say he admitted
to the crimes. Prosecutors will seek the death penalty if he is convicted.
Before beginning jury selection, Circuit Judge Ric Howard ruled that defense
attorney Dan Lewan could not question Mark Lunsford about his finances or
introduce evidence of pornography found in the delete bin of a computer in
his home after his daughter disappeared.
Howard also said he would decide later on a motion by Lewan to keep the jury
from seeing photographs of Jessica's body. Lewan said the photos are
"difficult to look at" and would be prejudicial.
Prosecutors can't use confession
The state's job to convict Couey was made more difficult when Howard ruled
June 30 that his taped confession could not be used as evidence in the trial
because investigators had ignored his requests for an attorney.
Howard ruled, however, that prosecutors can still use the discovery of
Jessica's body buried outside the mobile home where Couey had been living,
as well as a bloody mattress from the mobile home that has Jessica's DNA on
it.
Other incriminating statements he made later to investigators and a jail
guard also can be used during the trial. Prosecutors say they are confident
they have enough evidence to convict him.
Jessica was found March 19, 2005, buried with her stuffed dolphin behind the
mobile home, which was across the street from her house in Homosassa. She
had been kidnapped from her bedroom three weeks earlier. The day before her
body was found, Couey had told investigators where to look.
The third-grader was alive when she was buried in garbage bags with her
hands bound by speaker wire, an autopsy found. The medical examiner ruled
she died of asphyxiation.
Outrage over Jessica's slaying prompted the Florida Legislature to pass a
bill establishing a mandatory sentence of 25 years to life behind bars for
people convicted of certain sex crimes against children 11 and younger, with
lifetime tracking by global positioning satellite tracking after they are
freed. At least 11 other states have followed suit.
