CINCINNATI -- Jurors in the Cincinnati trial of a man accused of killing two teenage girls and two women are expected tour the areas where the four burned bodies were found.
Anthony Kirkland is a registered sex offender who was released from a halfway house early last year. Weeks later, he was arrested and accused of strangling 13-year-old Esme Kenney and trying to burn her body.
He's also charged in the 2006 killings of another Cincinnati teen and two women. He has pleaded not guilty in all cases.
The newly selected jury will board a bus Wednesday to see the crime scenes. Opening statements are expected Thursday.
The judge has ordered Kirkland to wear an electronic stun belt during the trial because of concerns he could be a danger in the courtroom.
