(Minneapolis, MN) -- Opening statements in the first Feeding Our Future criminal trial are set for Monday in Minneapolis.
A jury of Minnesotans from across the state was selected yesterday after a four-day process.
The 12 jurors and six alternates, who are mostly white and from the Twin Cities, were sworn in.
Prosecutors say the seven defendants stole millions of dollars reimbursing meal programs that feed low-income children.
The trial could last six weeks.
