Trial Begins Involving Sarah Jessica Parker’s Surrogate
Sex and the City Star Sarah Jessica Parker and husband Matthew Broderick will not be present for the trial of Martins Ferry Police Chief Barry Carpenter, reports E! News. Carpenter is facing multiple felonies including burglary and receiving stolen property for allegedly orchestrating a break-in at the Ohio home of the woman carrying Parker and Broderick’s twins.
Jury selection began Monday. Reportedly, only one of the 70 potential jurors in attendance claimed not to be aware of the case.
Bridgeport Sheriff Chad Dojack will stand trial Jan. 12 on similar charges in connection with the incident, while Bruce Callarik will be booked on a lesser charge of receiving stolen property.
All three men have pleaded not guilty and could face jail time if convicted.
A publicist for Parker and Broderick issued a statement saying, “Matthew and Sarah Jessica have complete faith in the legal system.”
