U.S. v. Allen

In prosecution on advertising, transporting and possessing child pornography, Dist. Ct. did not err in denying defendant's for-cause challenge to prospective juror who initially indicated that she would find it difficult to be fair to defendant due to incident where individual had attempted to kidnap prospective juror's daughter. Juror's experience was unrelated to charged offense, and said juror eventually indicated that she could set her experience aside and be fair to defendant, and that she would give defendant benefit of doubt. Moreover, Dist. Ct. was in better position to determine ability of prospective juror to follow its instructions. (Dissent filed.)
