Clayton, MO – A jury has been picked and opening arguments begin today (Thursday) in the trial of St. Louis Rams player Leonard Little.
He pleaded not guilty to charges of drunk driving and speeding in Ladue last year.
Little is being tried as a persistent offender in this case. That's becasue he previously pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the death of Susan Gutweiler of St. Louis County in a 1998 crash.
