Biases and prejudices of many would-be jurors in the Chandra Levy murder case became clear under questioning Wednesday as attorneys chose at least 31 people to move on to what will be the final cut.

D.C. Superior Court Judge Gerald I. Fisher said the goal was to procure approximately 40 potential jurors, out of which 12 jurors and four alternates would be selected to determine the fate of 29-year-old Ingmar Guandique, an illegal immigrant and alleged MS-13 gang member charged with killing Levy.
