[rjmst1]

Uh, returning to a lower plane of philosophical discourse, is anyone going to the hearing???

Naw, yo....

[Airgumpp]

Can anyone walk in and witness the trial? I'd love to be in attendance for this when I'm able.

Will it at least be public record (video, audio or transcript?)

[rjmst1]

As long as there's room for you.

[bill gray]

Thank you Airgumpp. Hopefully, someone will attend and post a blow-by-blow account.

rjmst1-you were right on the delay. I was wrong-by 24 hours

[rjmst1]

Haha. Predicting the delay is the easy part. Predicting the outcome is not so easy. But the trial is still young and he can enter a plea at any time. One of my last cases in Dauphin was a rape case where the defendant entered a guilty plea after our first witness testified. We dragged people out of their houses, went through jury selection with them, swore them in and everything. Got subpoenas for witnesses, everything. So you never know. I would definitely not want to be him right now.

As far as his plea, like I said all along, I could be wrong.

[DeadHead]

Does anyone know anything about his lawyer??

[PhillyAR]

So is anyone going to/at the trial ?
