(KNZA)--Seven women and five men have been selected to serve on the jury for the first of four trials against a Holton man facing multiple sex-related charges involving five women and a teenage girl.

The Topeka Capital Journal reports the jury was selected Monday from a pool of 142 prospective jurors for the trial of 22-year-old Jacob Ewing on charges of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and aggravated criminal sodomy.

The charges stem from alleged sex offenses in May 2014 involving a girl who was 13-years-old at the time.

Opening arguments in the case are to be heard Tuesday morning in Jackson County District with testimony to follow.

The trial is set to run through Friday.

Ewing faces a total of 19 charges in the cases dating back to January 2014.
