Wondering if these 2 plead guilty & that is why the trial was cancelled back in April. But of course I'm not finding any current articles on them.

Anyone??
 
@Seattle1 - was wondering if you could help me on this. The only place I can search for these two is on a calendar & they have not shown up since April of this year.
Their case is Federal (kidnapping charge) - Tennessee Federal court Western District Case #2:20-cr-20228-MSN-1 (Fitzgerald) and Turner has ending MSN-2.

The Judge is Mark S. Norris - his is the calendar that I have looked at.

Thanks in advance if you can find something! :)

@Seattle1 - was wondering if you could help me on this. The only place I can search for these two is on a calendar & they have not shown up since April of this year.
Their case is Federal (kidnapping charge) - Tennessee Federal court Western District Case #2:20-cr-20228-MSN-1 (Fitzgerald) and Turner has ending MSN-2.

The Judge is Mark S. Norris - his is the calendar that I have looked at.

Thanks in advance if you can find something! :)

OK, I posted the entire docket as of this date but I only read the last few entries where it appears that in Feb 2022 -- a Trial Date was set, but soon after a motion for Psych Eval was filed, and Court Ordered.

As you know, whether a competency evaluation or mental evaluation is Ordered, all court action stops until the evaluation report is complete and the Court determines what is next. They can take forever -- think of Letecia Stauch. This is Federal Court and I don't know if the process is longer here or not.

See Docket entries #82 and #87-88 below.
