What We Know About The Boston Marathon Bombings Trial Jury

BOSTON (CBS) -- Not much is known about the 10 women and eight men who have been selected to decide the fate of accused Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

The jury of 12, plus six alternates, was seated Tuesday, after prosecutors and defense lawyers spent weeks questioning hundreds of potential jurors. If the jury convicts Tsarnaev for his alleged role in the bombings that killed three people and injured more than 260 in April 2013, they will then have to decide if he'll get life in prison or the death penalty.

The court does not release any information about the jurors or explain why they were picked, but WBZ-TV reporter Jim Armstrong and WBZ NewsRadio 1030's Carl Stevens and Lana Jones were inside the courtroom as many of the prospective jurors were questioned.

Here's what we know about the jury, based on their observations:

Juror 35: He works in the energy field for Massachusetts. He said he thinks media coverage of the war on terrorism is overdone, and is conflicted on the death penalty.

The juror attended a One Fund fundraiser to benefit bombing victims, and said he donated about $75. He said he'd be honored to serve on the jury and promised to keep an open mind.

Juror 41: She's an executive assistant with a computing company and has served on two juries.

She says she hasn't formed an opinion on Tsarnaev's guilt or innocence yet, and is undecided on her death penalty views.

Juror 83: He's a student who followed the police shooting case of Michael Brown in Ferguson closely. He speaks a little Farsi, and his mother is a native of Iran.

He believes the death penalty can be an acceptable punishment.

Juror 102: She recently worked as a nurse. She said she's not sure about Tsarnaev's guilt, or what his punishment should be.

Juror 138: He works for a local department of public works. He was one of the few prospective jurors to write "No" on his questionnaire when asked if he thought Tsarnaev is guilty.

He said some of his friends thought he was "lucky' to get picked for the jury pool.

Juror 229: She's an event planner. She said she's wary of the media and unsure about Tsarnaev's guilt or the death penalty.

Juror 286: She's a restaurant general manager. She's been on a jury before, and said she hasn't formed an opinion on Tsarnaev's guilt or the death penalty.

Juror 480: He's a telecommunications engineer.

Juror 598: He's a house painter.

Juror 608: She does not have strong opinions on the death penalty.

Juror 638: She works for the state, teaching skills to people with disabilities.

She says she doesn't follow the news and is unsure on Tsarnaev's guilt.
