But the 9/23/24 one does not say Rescheduled as the previous dates do...

Oh NO!!! You can not leave me hanging on these Indiana cases!!! :(

If you REALLY mean it - can you post the link to the Court site for these guys? Maybe I can find someone that can access them....

Sure. I think anyone in the US can access the court site.

I should have added IMO when I said 'rescheduled'. Since it's been rescheduled 15 times and there is no information about the jury selection, I'm assuming it's not happening today.

Okay - thanks for the link & case #s - wonder if anyone else is following this case - have not seen many "likes" - I will go back on the previous pages - and look! :)

I do not see WHY he doesn't just plead guilty - he is already doing 200 years for the Blackwell murders.... :rolleyes:

Well - it looks like it is just me & you @FrostedGlass - there was @Laughing back in Feb. of 2024. Went back to the beginning of the year....

Maybe we should just forget about this case - what do you think? Both have already been sentenced for the "primary" victims - the Blackwells - eh?

As you know, it's really time-consuming to do updates. If no one comments or likes, then it seems like a waste of time and space.

I think they must be waiting on another case, in which one or the other is coopering with the prosecution.

ETA Formatting is acting weird today - cannot get the font sizes to stay the same. Apologies. These tables are a pain to deal with from time to time.
