Richmond, Va. - Jury selection is under way in Richmond in the racketeering trial of five current or former motorcycle gang members, including the national president of the Outlaws.
The trial is the second for Outlaws president Jack Rosga of Milwaukee, who is also known as 'Milwaukee Jack'. In early November, a jury failed to reach a verdict on Rosga but acquitted two co-defendants and convicted one.
This time, Rosga is being tried with four other co-defendants. Twelve jurors and two alternates will be chosen from a pool of 105 potential jurors who packed U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson's courtroom Wednesday morning.
Twenty-seven members of the Outlaws and an affiliated gang, the Pagans, were indicted in June. More than half have entered guilty pleas.
