A jury of eight women and four men will begin to hear evidence and testimony this morning in the trial of an Effingham County man accused of killing his father and brother. Prosecutors and defense attorneys spent nearly eight hours Tuesday going through a pool of 58 potential jurors before selecting a panel of 12 with three alternates in the double murder trial of Craig Heidt. Opening statements are expected to begin at 9 a.m. in the Ebenezer Courtroom of the Effingham County Judicial Complex.
