Intoxication Manslaughter Trial In Wise County?

Haven't heard anything about this other than the defendant's name is Billy Allred. Jury selection ongoing. Looks like Greg Lowery and Tim Cole for the State. Lee Ann Breading out of Denton for the defense. I'll get on it. Edit: Sounds like a one car accident where passenger died. Edit: Little bit of a crazy moment when the name of the 11th juror was called and she immediately began a litany of excuses why she couldn't serve -- none of which she had voiced during jury selection. She was sitting in the jury box last time I checked. Edit: Found the Messenger's story on the accident from July, 2009 here.

With a name like that he can probably speak English so I am guessing a minimum jail sentence and a $1500 fine.

Why don't we hear more about what "GRAND" (why that term anyway?) juries are about? If these "special" folks bill or no bill, why aren't we the public given privy to their decisions, if they are so smart?
