TIA!

Not yet, but I would assume there will be at least one motions hearing before then.

MANSFIELD, La. – A convicted child killer’s prior convictions for sex offenses will be admissible during his retrial this summer, the Louisiana Supreme Court ruled Tuesday.

The ruling reinstates DeSoto District Judge Amy Burford McCartney’s pre-trial determination that Brian Horn’s crimes can be included in his capital murder trial. The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeal had overturned McCartney. The DeSoto District Attorney’s Office appealed that decision to the state Supreme Court.
[.....]
Horn, 46, of Keachi, faces prosecution again for first-degree murder in the March 2010 death of Justin Bloxom. Jury selection is scheduled to begin June 12 in Vernon Parish, and once seated the jury will be taken to DeSoto Parish for the evidence portion of the trial.

Good news, Niner! The link still doesn't show any motions hearings.

 

[Niner]

@wendybtn - any news on this case? TIA!

@wendybtn - any news on this case? TIA!

No motions hearings listed but jury trial is still listed for 6/19/23. With the court ruling that prior crimes can come in, I don't know why he or his lawyers think another trial is going to have a different outcome. Well, prisoners have nothing but time on their hands and hope springs eternal. Thanks for reminding me, Niner!

And thanks for the info! I guess I shall be back at the end of March to see if he has any hearings before his trial date.

@wendybtn - Hey! Any updates for hearings?

TIA!
