Why is this dragging on for two years?
The boys probably want to move to Florida because their name is too well known in Durham as well as Chapel Hill and Raleigh. As teenagers, their name precedes them wherever they go. IMO.
They are living in a world that is standing still at an important period in their life.
After two years, LE should know if the one son is guilty or not. IIRC, the father had heart problems. It sounds like LE can’t make a decision.
bbm
Agreed -- I have to think the guilt part of this one is/may be a bit flimsy, and murder trials, as we know, cost a lot of money, time, etc., etc.
Who knoze what's going on with them? Durham County jurisprudence can be quite interesting at times...
I just checked the Durham County District & Superior Courts docket, and there was nothing there for "Bishop,A" so no change there. My guess is that the prosecutors, etc., want to have a good solid case, and maybe they feel that they don't have one yet.
Not to be too facetious, but -- How many expert witnesses would know about a dog's leash around a man's neck possibly causing a fatal heart attack three days later??!!

Sounds silly, but that may be just a part of what LE/DA do not have.
Dunno -- we could see something tomorrow, etc., about this -- or not.
It's not unusual for a trial to be about 18--24 months after the murder and arrest (if indeed this one is a murder) -- but in this case, Bishop wasn't arrested until several months after the father had died of a heart attack, so that may be why we haven't heard much yet. At least this suspect had enuff money to bail himself out of jail.
So we wait...
