The long-awaited murder trial of Auburn Police Officer Jeffrey Nelson got off to a rocky start Thursday.
Nelson is charged with second-degree murder and first-degree assault in the 2019 death of Jesse Sarey, 26.
King County Superior Court Judge Nicole Gaines Phelps briefly delayed opening statements Thursday after defense lawyers raised concerns about a juror.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel “This is a case about an unnecessary death," Prosecutor Angelo Calfo told the jury once proceedings got underway Thursday morning. "It’s a case about a police officer who didn’t follow his training. Who acted unreasonably. It’s about a police officer, the defendant, Jeff Nelson, who unnecessarily shot and killed a homeless person named Jesse Sarey, a person who was unarmed.”
