Nearly 40 years later in 2020, DNA evidence linked a 64-year-old man, David Dalrymple, to the rape and murder of Johnson, authorities said. Dalrymple was charged with first-degree murder and rape.
Dalrymple pleaded not guilty to all charges on Thursday. His trial, according to Canyon County Judge Thomas Whitney, will last four weeks long next year, beginning on March 13.
The State of Idaho is not seeking the death penalty in this case, but Dalrymple could face up to life in prison if convicted and a $50,000 for both counts of rape and murder.
Authorities also believe Dalrymple is responsible for the molestation of other young girls.
"During our investigation, the Canyon County Sheriff's Office have located two other victims of similar age to Daralyn, who never reported to law enforcement to being sexually abused by David Dalrymple," Sheriff Donahue said in aa 2020 press conference. "We are asking the public, we are imploring the public if you have any information on those cases or on this current case to please come forward and contact my office, or as Brian said, the Crime Stoppers."
Dalrymple is currently serving 20 years to life in prison for lewd and lascivious conduct with a minor under 16. He was also convicted of kidnapping, sexual abuse of a minor and second degree of kidnapping.
Dalrymple's preliminary hearing will take place Feb. 6 at 2:30 p.m. at the Canyon County Courthouse.

@Niner


Next hearing is 1/9/23
 
@ReadySet - just wondering if his next hearing will be the preliminary hearing on 2/6 per the article you posted?

TIA! And a

Happy New Year Smiley

Looks like he's fighting it: motions to replace counsel and to vacate or postpone? trial date vacated. Or maybe going to take a plea? Status conference on 1/9/23 was vacated. Am I correct that all hearings have been vacated?

@Niner

March trial vacated; now schedule for May 13.
I wonder what this means:
Pro Se Motion to Terminate Current Counsel and Replace with Conflict Counsel
 
Thank you the info @ReadySet ! You got me - I have no idea what that means. But if you noticed nothing is happening until 2024.... A whole year until he has his next hearing date!!

But I googled it - and this came up:

Dismiss Court Appointed Counsel And To Proceed In Pro Se; And Motion To ... defendant's pro se motion which seeks to rescind the plea agreement is stricken.

Now guessing - he was probably going to represent himself & decided against it - ??

Wow no, I did not notice it is set for 2024!!!!
 
Wow no, I did not notice it is set for 2024!!!!

Do you think it MIGHT be a typo by the person who typed that in the court site? Maybe check in a week - to see it stays the same or someone changes it to 2023?
 
I think because he asked for new attorney, that's why the trial is now set for 2024. Not a typo. @Niner
