Jurors in the trial of an Arizona rancher charged with fatally shooting a migrant on his property will have the opportunity to visit the ranch near the border with Mexico as the trial progresses. The judge overseeing the case has approved the visit to 75-year-old George Alan Kelly's ranch, citing its potential to aid jurors in making a fair determination of the allegations.
The visit, scheduled for this week, will not include members of the news media, as the judge has imposed restrictions on questioning jurors and capturing images of them. While such visits are relatively uncommon, they have been utilized in past cases to provide jurors with a firsthand perspective of the scene.
