The bribery and racketeering trial of former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan is set to resume with more questioning of potential jurors.
Prosecutors and defense attorneys spent 3 days interviewing prospective jurors last week.
Taraleigh Davis, Assistant Professor of Public Law and Political Science at Bradley University, says it is not surprising that several people spent more than 30 minutes answering questions.
Davis says Judge John Robert Blakey is not rushing the process.
Jury selection is scheduled to resume this morning in Chicago. Madigan is facing 23 federal counts of corruption.
