To be fair, alternate jurors are selected at the same time as the actual jurors and through the same process. They are subject to the same rules as actual jurors as well, in case they need to become jurors. So, the people that were selected as alternates were fairly chosen before the fact of their reactions to the case were known. I agree they appear likely to be biased against him though, but that's part of the "art" of jury selection.
