Thanks @FrostedGlass ! I shall check back in - in about a week or so to see if Jackson has a hearing before his trial on 9/25.

 

[Niner]

@FrostedGlass - just checking to see if Jackson's next is trial on 9/25/23 or ??....

TIA!

edited to add - I have jones on 9/11/23 trial.

 

[FrostedGlass]

@Niner I'm hoping this is the end.

Will Drake get a plea deal on the 28th and sentencing on 10/30? Do you think Jackson has a plea in the works? How about Jones?

Jones = 09/11: Jury Trial
Jackson = 09/25: Jury Trial
Drake = 09/28: Pretrial Conference, 10/30: Jury Trial

Well - considering Jackson is spending 120 years in prison for the Blackwell murders - I would HOPE he would make a deal...

Also - Jones - sentenced to 200 years.... Blackwell murders. You would think these 2 would make a deal & not waste the courts time.

And Drake - she has a conspiracy charge regarding 1 death - another hopefully for a deal...

I guess we shall see, eh?!

 

[FrostedGlass]

@Niner I'm checking Jones almost daily and there's still nothing other than the trial date. Shouldn't we have had a final pre-trial conference by now? I think he has a plea in the works. Actually, I think all 3 have pleas based on their trial dates.

There are no changes yet for Jackson and Drake.

Jones continuance was by the court and not by Jones. I wonder what's up with that?

Hopefully some kind of deal since he is already sitting in prison for 120 years...

Oops - I should have said 200 years. Jackson was 120 years.

So it looks like he got 52 years credit on the 200.

Ya know... I get kind of irritated at following some of these guys for years and years. There should be time limits for how long criminal cases can linger within the court system. IMO
