The trial of a young member of the Kennedy clan for an alleged murder committed 25 years earlier began in a Connecticut court Tuesday with the selection of a 12-member jury.

Michael Skakel, now 41, is accused of clubbing to death Martha Moxley with a golf club more than 25 years ago, when he was just 15. Skakel could face life in prison should he be convicted, as he is to be tried as an adult, not a juvenile.
