Eleven women and two men have been selected to hear the case of the alleged ringleader of a group of "ninjas" who shot and killed a Florida couple known for adopting special-needs children.
The jury, which includes one alternate, was selected Monday in the trial of Leonard Gonzalez Jr. Prosecutors said that he and six others put on black masks and dressed as ninjas before creeping into the Beulah, Florida, home of Melanie and Byrd Billings on July 9, 2009.
Opening statements are set for Tuesday morning in Escambia County Circuit Court in Pensacola, and the trial is expected to last three to four days. Gonzalez, 35, could be sentenced to death if he is convicted of first-degree murder.

These fellas live in a fantasy world. Too many movies and video games. What is wrong with society today? The masses are going psycho. No, life does not mean you can do anything you want. It means we have to abide by disciplined rules for the good of all -Be a part of that.
This is what Methenphatamine does to people. These boys were clearly ingesting too much- got lost in fantasy and delusion.
What causes people to think that they can get away with doing these? If those seven guys had gotten jobs, in a year, they altogether would have earned way more than 100k. They coulda had drugs during the whole year.
