I think you may be right, Grice was worried about DNA evidence after being buried if I recall correctly. I think he did injure himself attacking the victims and was worried he bled on them or other items buried.
I believe she may have been married in 1991 in Texas County (MLI-1991-6); I can't find a corresponding divorce record, but the man did marry again in 1997. There is another record for a Tifany M. Adams who married in 1993 in Kay County (MLI-1987-408, unsure why this has a 1987 in the case number with the record showing 1993) and was divorced in 1995 in Texas County (FD-1995-35). Anyway, since both of these Tifany M. Adams are linked to Texas County, I think it is likely those records are both hers, as well as the marriage we do know about to Rickman.
Yes it's listed for 9 a.m. at Oklahoma Sate Courts Network. AFAIK no information has been released.
Thanks for that info
We'll have to wait a little longer for the trial to officially start then.I think it was just the court ordered, discovery status hearing that is supposed to be held every three weeks until. I doubt there was any fodder for the media and so we will hear little to nothing.

I fell into the rabbit hole reading the previous legal histories of the 5. Cullum had quite the nasty divorce and still arguing, lol.
Interesting that Cora's lawyer has asked for her case not to be combined with Cole's, but Cole's lawyer made no such request.
I’d bet that Cole and Grice did the dirty work. Perhaps why they do not want to be tried together?
Except for of the five suspects, Cole and Grice are the only two co-defendants who did not request their cases NOT be combined (with the other defendants) for the preliminary hearing. (Not sure who OP is referring to by "they").
The “they” I was implying was Cullum, Adams & Cora. I am sure each of the 3 and their attorneys have a reason why want separate preliminary hearings. The reason, my thoughts only, is that any extreme physical violence and mortal injury to the women was likely inflicted by Grice & Cole.

Snipped by me for focus...
Perfunctory court-record wording, but a perfectly powerful reminder of how very, very sad this case is. Am I wrong to feel relieved, somehow, that there were any personal effects left to be recovered from these murdered women? I had my doubts, for sure.
Does "CONSUMPTIVE TESTING OF EVIDENCE" mean the testing will likely involve all of a particular sample? Or am I misinterpreting that?
