GUIDE: Potential jurors profiles in the George Zimmerman trial

SANFORD, Fla. – Attorneys in the George Zimmerman trial continued the next phase of interviews Thursday in the search of six jurors and four alternates.

On Wednesday, the prosecution questioned 40 potential jurors on their experiences with crime, race and self-defense. Sixteen of the 40 are men and 24 are women. Three are Hispanic, 3 are of mixed race, 7 are black and 27 are white.
