Jury selection in the Western Kentucky trial of a man accused of killing three children and assaulting their mother is scheduled to begin tomorrow morning.
Potential jurors are being questioned individually, meaning the selection process could last for most of the week.
Dunlap pleaded not guilty to the charges.
He stabbed three children to death, injured and sexually assaulted their mother, before burning their Trigg county home in October of 2008.
Police say the mother survived by acting like she was dead, and then running outside where firefighters found her in a swimming pool.
The trial was moved from Trigg county because of heavy publicity.
Prosecutors will seek the death penalty.
