Just catching up here, did Trezell get a new attorney?

 

[Knox]

The next hearing is October 14th. Hope the trial date of October 24th sticks, but I bet we'll see further delays.

Thank you for the update. Yes I bet something will happen before then -plea deal? Somebody turning on somebody? Where are the boys?

 

[Dre]

I don’t see TW taking a plea deal, moo.

I’m praying that JW spills the beans to salvage whatever she can, now that the other boys have told LE what happened.

This is one of those cases that wrenches my gut, I feel very afraid to see the details eventually like it’ll leave the worst scar. Those poor boys, all 6 of them deserved so much better than this scum. I can’t wait for justice.

Is that the same as a Status Hearing? Just making sure everyone is ready to go to trial?

Yes.

 

[TheLoadedGoat]

Yes.

Am I the only one that expected a plea agreement in exchange to locating the boys' bodies? I guess that is still possible.

Me, too.

Also saves the siblings from testifying.

Readiness hearing was scheduled for today. Checked the case record.

It had today's hearing listed. In addition it now says - Jury Trial 10/24/22. And two more entries- Readiness Hearing and Jury Trial, 1/20/23 & 1/30/23.

On my phone can't screen cap it.

Here we go, Trial postponed.

WHERE ARE THE BOYS: Trial for adoptive parents of Orrin, Orson West postponed to January

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — The trial of Jacqueline and Trezell West, charged with murder and other offenses in the deaths of two adopted boys whose disappearance sparked a massive search an…

The Wests, who were set to begin trial later this month, are now scheduled for trial on Jan. 30 after defense counsel said they were still receiving evidence — including thousands of pages of documents on information retrieved from cellphones and computers — and need more time to prepare.

Judge John W. Lua granted the postponement over the objection of the Wests, finding it necessary for defense attorneys to properly prepare.

Alekxia Torres Stallings, one of Jacqueline West’s attorneys, said they had received DNA evidence and body-camera footage and were awaiting the cellphone and computer evidence.

[...]

A gag order issued in March remains in effect and bars prosecutors and the Wests’ attorneys, investigators and court staff from speaking about the case.

Tired of sitting in jail? Maybe they are both looking forward to State Prison ...

As stated upthread, I pray that these two will plead -- and save their other rambunctious boys from testifying.

Comfort & safety for the surviving children!

So, the Wests objected to their lawyers' request for postponement? How odd. JMO.

Maybe they are banking on "no body no conviction"? I read yesterday that in some parts of Austraila, where someone is convicted of murder without the body (i.e., Paul Flores) when they come up for parole, it is not granted unless they tell where the body is. I think they is awesome.

We have a law like that here in Utah as well.

New Utah Law Keeps Convicted Murderer From Parole Unless Body Found

A new law may bring closure to families like that of missing Spanish Fork teenager Kiplyn Davis. The law says convicts are not eligible for parole until they help detectives find their victims bodies.

Waiting for Trezell to decide to represent himself next.
