A six-member, all-female jury was selected on Thursday to decide the fate of George Zimmerman, who shot and killed unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin in a case that grabbed the U.S. media spotlight in 2012. Five of the six women on the jury panel, selected from a pool of 40 potential jurors, were white and the sixth appeared to be Hispanic.
