Comment:
Day 10
 
He has new dates. Note; the jury trial is scheduled for 10 days and has 10 CCS entries.
For space, I'll only post the first day and last day.
One interesting note is he is being held in Delaware County jail instead of Marion Co.
I don't see a safe keeping order; no idea why he's being held in Delaware Co.
