SALT LAKE CITY — The man accused of the 2002 abduction of Elizabeth Smart was kicked out of a federal courtroom Monday for singing hymns as jury selection for his trial got underway.
U.S. District Judge Dale Kimball ordered Brian David Mitchell to be taken to another room in Salt Lake City’s federal courthouse to watch Monday’s proceedings by remote video.
Mitchell faces federal charges of kidnapping and unlawful transportation of a minor across state lines. He could spend the rest of his life in prison if convicted.
