@Lorenathered - any updates yet? Or am I too early to ask?

TIA if you find anything!

 

[Lorenathered]

I have been checking daily and nothing has been updated on his docket. I wonder if that means it did actually happen this time and might take a bit of time for new scheduling? Not sure but I will keep checking for updates.

Oh no - you are the only one that has looked up this case for me... I will be sad if you don't want to check anymore.

 

[Lorenathered]

@Niner no worries at all. I will continue to keep checking on this case! Totally invested in seeing this all the way through since it is so local to me.

Oh good! Didn't realize this case was local to you. Are you going to go to the trial - IF it ever happens?

 

[Lorenathered]

The crime happened about 45 minutes from where I live and sadly I hadn't heard about it until I saw it on here. I wouldn't be able to go to much of the trial but very tempted to go for the final day or two, catch verdict maybe since I fear media has forgotten all about it.

 

[Lorenathered]

Just a quick update, or lack of one in this case. I have been checking the court site daily and nothing has been changed or updated. Last scheduled date still says scheduled.
