The trial of accused serial killer Michael Madison, scheduled to begin July 21, could be delayed for several months as an appellate court decides the issue of a court-ordered psychological exam.
Earlier this month, the Ohio 8th District Court of Appeals refused a request by Cuyahoga County prosecutors to place the issue on an accelerated docket. Prosecutors and defense attorneys also have yet to file briefs on their respected arguments.
That means it could take months for the issue to be resolved. A decision on whether the trial is going to be pushed back is expected in the coming days.
