Original: Jury selection begins in Faith Hedgepeth murder trial 14 years after her death
Jury selection has begun in the murder trial of Faith Hedgepeth, a University of North Carolina student killed in 2012. The trial starts 14 years after her death, following a long investigation and a 2021 arrest in the case. The killing drew lasting attention in North Carolina and among Native American communities, as Hedgepeth was a member of the Haliwa-Saponi tribe.
Why now: The long-delayed trial of the UNC student's murder is finally getting underway.
