Hundreds of Franklin County residents are expected to receive jury summonses for the capital murder trial of a man accused of killing four people.

Kyle Trevor Flack’s trial is scheduled to begin Feb. 1, 2016. He is charged with capital murder in the 2013 slayings of 21-year-old Kaylie Smith Bailey and her daughter, 18-month-old Lana-Leigh Bailey. He is also charged with premeditated first-degree murder in the deaths of 30-year-old Andrew A. Stout and 31-year-old Steven White.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that summonses for 600 Franklin County citizens are expected to be mailed next week. Questioning of the possible jurors will start Feb. 1 and is expected to last 12 days.

On Tuesday, a Franklin County judge granted prosecutors permission to show jurors security video clips depicting three of the victims.
