Attorneys began vetting potential jurors Monday for the case, which centres on one of the hip-hop world’s defining moments and enduring mysteries. Seven potential jurors were asked to return Thursday afternoon as attorneys continue the selection process Tuesday and Wednesday. Thirty years after his death, Shakur remains a cultural icon and is considered one of the most influential and versatile rappers of all time. Questions posed to the potential jurors included their favourite books and movies, if they had any connections to a gang, and whether they had listened to Shakur’s music. The witness list includes former Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman and members of Shakur’s family.
