There's not much to it really, but here is the video on YouTube.

For those who can't watch right now, it's just people standing around in a hallway that I assume is outside courtroom.

The man charged in connection with Maleah Davis' disappearance will face a judge for the first time since her remains were found.

Still waiting and praying for more charges. I’m sure nothing much will happen today but I can’t sit still. Hope we get a play by play from one of the reporters.

Thanks, @Niner!

It was the defense who had the arraignment moved.

Derion Vence was scheduled to appear in court for arraignment today. He’s charged with tampering with Maleah Davis’ body. His attorney instead had the arraignment rescheduled for September 16.

#MaleahDavis update: Derion Vence’s coworker at PharmMEDium sent me this screenshot of a couple of messages sent by Derion about Maleah approximately three weeks before he reported her missing.

I have no words.

This was put off? Until September? And no further charges? Why?

That sure answers the questions about whether or not Maleah still needed the helmet. Where the hell was her mother, who should have made sure she wore it? We may not ever see charges against BB but she really didn't seem to care much about Maleah.

While it's disappointing news I appreciate all of you posting updates about today's events. I'm trying to be patient and remember that the police chief said we should have an update in the next few weeks. That was 11 days ago.
