Judge rejects defense request to disqualify prosecutors office from Cleveland New Year’s Eve triple killing case

Posted Jan 06, 2020

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A judge on Monday refused to kick the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office off of the case of a man charged in a triple slaying at party last New Year’s Eve in Cleveland.

Common Pleas Court Judge Joan Synenberg also on Monday denied a request to release full transcripts of the grand jury proceedings that led to the August indictment of Tevin Biles-Thomas on multiple charges of murder, voluntary manslaughter, felonious assault and a charge of perjury.

The judge handed down her rulings at a brief court hearing that was scheduled to address a motion filed by Biles-Thomas’s defense attorneys to suppress statements that their client made to investigators.

One of Biles-Thomas’s lawyers, Joe Patituce, asked to continue the suppression hearing for a few days “in the interests of justice."

Synenberg scheduled that hearing for Wednesday morning. [(1/8/20)]
[.....]
The state’s case rests on two witnesses who said Biles-Thomas fired shots at the party. The witnesses identified Biles-Thomas based on clothing, but gave different descriptions of his clothing, court records say.
