Jury selection begins Monday in Lee Co. deputy’s death trial

LEE COUNTY, AL
Family, friends, and co-workers of Deputy James Anderson gathered at the Lee County Sheriff's Office for a memorial. Saturday marks the two year anniversary of his death.
Deputy Anderson's alleged killer, Gregory Henderson, attended his last status hearing in court before his capital murder trial set to begin Monday.
Friday afternoon, Henderson, dressed in a suit and handcuffs was present for his last status hearing before Monday's trial.   
Henderson faces either the death penalty or life in prison if convicted of running over Deputy Anderson and killing him with a car during a traffic stop.
His plea of not guilty and not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect has not changed.
Major Tommy Carter says "I know next week is going to be a tough week for all of us with the trial starting. But we have each other to lean on and we have Gods support and love to see us through."
