The judge presiding over Michael Bevers quintuple murder trial overruled a defense request to have an assistant prosecutor recused from the case.
The ruling followed a lengthy hearing on Tuesday during which the prosecutor and a former police detective testified for the first time about their actions related to the investigation.
District Judge Sharon Holmes said she would not preclude Assistant District Attorney Sarah McAmis from being a part of the prosecution team when Bevers trial begins Monday, deciding she found no significant correlation between her actions on the case and those of former Broken Arrow Police Detective Gayla Adcock, who resigned effective March 1 amid an internal affairs proceeding about her work on the investigation.
