The capital murder trial of 24-year-old Cameron Todd Willingham is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday in the 13th District Court in the Navarro County Courthouse.

Following almost six days of jury selection, the final juror was picked Saturday afternoon.

Willingham is accused of the Dec. 23, 1991 arson at his residence at 1213 W 11th Ave. that claimed the lives of his three children.

One-year-old twins, Kameron and Kamron Willingham died at the scene and their two-year-old sister, Amber, died later that day as a result of smoke inhalation.
