SCOTTSVILLE, Tenn. - The Gabbi Doolin murder case has been placed on hold yet again, meaning the high profile trial won't be happening any time soon.
Nearly three years ago, Timothy Madden was arrested and charged with the rape and murder of 7-year-old Gabbi Doolin.

But investigators say DNA links Madden to the rape and murder of 7-year-old Gabbi Doolin.

Since then, prosecutors announced they would be seeking the death penalty, and then there's been one delay after another as lawyers bickered over the examination of evidence in the case.
Finally, a trial date was set for this month, and then the judge stunned many by
