Are they still choosing a jury?

No idea "what" is going on - haven't been able to find any tweeters from over here - maybe you will have better luck if you are in the States.

So - NOT a trial starting....

Can I use you as my "go-to" person for this case? I've lost both people that were helping me on this case. I can not access the court site, but it looks like you can!

Ah! Got an alert for this case!

June 1, 2021

Jury selection is scheduled to begin Wednesday morning in the trial of Christian “Kit” Martin, the former Army major and commercial airline pilot charged with the November, 2015 murders of three neighbors in Pembroke.

Much of the discussion during a hearing Tuesday was focused on a shell casing that matched a gun belonging to Martin which was found on the back porch of the home of Calvin Phillips on South Main Street in Pembroke. Family members were cleaning the home weeks after the scene had been processed when the casing was discovered and defense attorney Tom Griffiths has argued the circumstances of the discovery should negate it as evidence.

After hearing both sides, Judge John Atkins allowed it to be presented during trial, but says the defense will obviously get to question those who found it.

I missed that. This is one strange case and being Kentucky it could become even stranger! I love the Commonwealth of Ky but sometimes... ugh!

The arrested suspect's wife was attempting to leave him/get divorced and she was bringing these neighbors into court to support her cause. He was infuriated.

Doesn't the court martial and loss of military pension play into the motive, too?

eta: I read one of the articles that quoted the stepson as saying that his stepfather acted very nice in public but was a monster behind closed doors. I believe this kid.

JMO.
