One of the problems emphasized by the defense was a thus far unexplained instance of potential jury tampering. During the court's first attempt at seating a jury, fliers that the defense characterized as attempts to intimidate potential jurors were placed on the vehicles of three different jurors.

For someone to have accomplished this targeted attempt at jury intimidation, they would have had to hang around the eighth floor of the courthouse, where Blazey's court sits, to identify prospective jurors summoned for the Taylor trial, wait for lunch break, then follow each person down to their vehicles.
