Jury consultant Renato Stabile weighed in on the makeup of the jury after the selection process wrapped Friday afternoon.
"For sure alternates are going come into play because in a case like this, you're going to lose some of the regular jurors," he told CNN chief legal analyst Laura Coates.
Now that jury selection is complete, Stabile says lawyers on both sides will be monitoring the jurors' social media posts to make sure they don't comment publicly on the case.
The jury also includes at least two lawyers, a "very unusual" move that Stabile says is a big gamble.
"They're going to be leaders in the jury room. The other jurors are going to be looking for them for their legal analysis even though they're not supposed to be instructing on the law. ... On the defense, I think it's a very bold move."
Having people with legal expertise on the jury could pose a risk for either side.
It could negatively affect the prosecution by diverting clarifying questions that would otherwise go to the judge, Coates said. But lawyers on the jury could be beneficial to the defense, as they might be able to raise questions about the burden of proof that might otherwise go unasked.
