The trial of the closely watched case involving a Missouri mother who allegedly started a hoax on MySpace resulting in a teenage girl's suicide is set to start as the court begins jury selection.

Lori Drew will be on trial in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles. She is being prosecuted under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. Drew's daughter, a minor, and her now-19-year-old employee Ashley Grills are also accused of participating in the hoax.
