TAMPA, Fla., May 28 (UPI) -- Twelve jurors have been picked for the trial of a Hollywood filmmaker accused of breaking Tampa, Fla., laws by distributing obscene videos, officials say.
Paul F. Little, also known as Max Hardcore, is facing 10 federal counts of distributing obscene materials through the mail and over the Internet, the Tampa (Fla.) Tribune reported Wednesday.
It is reported MaxWorld Entertainment, a company owned by Little, is on trial as well. Authorities said the case has not been linked to child pornography.
The owner of a pawn shop, a former loan coordinator, a teacher, two nurses and a lawyer's assistant are some of the people on the jury, the newspaper said.
U.S. District Judge Susan Bucklew said she needed to watch the questionable videos to make a decision about whether the jury would have to view all 8 1/2 hours of footage.
