Posted: Updated:
TULSA, Oklahoma -

Opening statements are set Monday in the trial of a Tulsa man charged with murder in what the victim's family is calling a hate crime.

Jurors in the Stanley Majors trial will be at the Tulsa County courthouse prior to the trial's 8:30 a.m. start.  The district attorney's office says they'll hear instructions followed by the opening statements.

Majors is accused of shooting and killing his neighbor, Khalid Jabara, in August 2016. 

Jabara's family says Majors harassed them for years because they're Lebanese Americans.

Jury selection started on January 22nd and the jurors were seated on Friday, January 26th.
