Several jurors were excused Wednesday after saying they had strong opinions about the crime or could not be impartial.
Judge Jon Blue told attorneys before prospective jurors were brought into New Haven Superior Court that any who cry or panic when they learn they were being considered for Joshua Komisarjevsky's trial would be excused immediately.
Authorities say Komisarjevsky and Steven Hayes killed Jennifer Hawke-Petit and her daughters, 11-year-old Michaela and 17-year-old Hayley, in their Cheshire home in 2007.
Hayes was convicted in the case last year and sentenced to death.
