The slaying of a Washington intern that dominated national headlines before the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks will finally come to trial this week.

Jury selection in the murder trial of 24-year-old Chandra Levy begins Monday in D.C. Superior Court, but the choosing of the jurors could take three or more days because of the case’s notoriety, the length of the trial, and the long list of questions that potential jurors are expected to answer, including their views about tattoos, gangs and illegal immigrants.
