Filmmaker trial gets underway today

Wendy Weiner Runge faces the most serious charges to date stemming from the film tax credit fiasco that erupted in 2009. She's a first time filmmaker who obtained $1.85 million in transferable tax credits. Drake University negotiates to have one trial a year in their campus courtroom for the benefit of law students, and this is it. Jury selection begins today. Former Gov. Chet Culver is among those subpoenaed to testify.
