Boston Herald: Judge denies Tsarnaev request for 10 extra juror challenges
In denying Tsarnaev's request, federal judge George A. O'Toole Jr stated that the federal rules do not allow for providing additional peremptories. As a result, Tsarnaev will have to rely on the standard 20 peremptories provided to defendants facing the death penalty. As some will recall, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is charged with carrying out the Boston Marathon bombing.
