@PayrollNerd - when you get a chance - can you see if Wiggins has a hearing before jury selection on 2/23/26? Also on that one "separate" case - firearms. Any updates for that one? I have 3/24/26 as pretrial hearing next. TIA!

Well dang - trial postponed... again....

https://eu.theledger.com/story/news/crime/2026/02/02/wiggins-trial-in-2020-frostproof-triple-murders-is-pushed-back-again/88412023007/

Feb. 2, 2026
Story Summary

• The trial for Tony "TJ" Wiggins, accused of three first-degree murders in 2020, has been postponed again.
• ]Wiggins faces the death penalty if convicted for the killings of Brandon Rollins, Keven Springfield, and Damion Tillman.
• Defense attorneys cited scheduling conflicts with other death penalty cases as the reason for the delay.

For a third time, the trial date has been set for Tony “TJ” Wiggins, who is facing three counts of first-degree murder in the 2020 killings of three men in Frostproof.

The judge had little choice but to move the trial to the fall at a five-minute status hearing Jan. 30 when he ruled on a defense motion to continue the trial again.
[.....]
At a hearing earlier in January, the defense told Circuit Judge J. Kevin Abdoney that recently obtained evidence would take too long to process in time for a February trial because of scheduling conflicts.

Wiggins’ defense team has been assigned to two additional death penalty cases, limiting the time the defense needed to prepare for Wiggins' capital case, defense attorney Debra Tuomey explained.
[.....]
On Jan. 30, the Wiggins trial was moved from Feb. 23 to Sept. 8. with jury selection to begin that day at 8 a.m. in the main courtroom of the courthouse in Bartow, according to information provided by the 10th Judicial Circuit court administrator’s office.

The trial is scheduled to last five weeks. The next status conference is set for 9 a.m. on March 13.
