Trial may be coontinued again.

On January 26, 2021, the defense attorney again filed a motion to continue the motion hearing to suppress evidence on February 2, and the jury trial scheduled to be on March 9, on the basis the plea negotiations are underway.

New Trial Date

The original jury trial date of January 26 was continued, as both the prosecutor and the defense are in plea negotiations. However, a jury trial date is now currently set to be on March 9, 2021.

Additional subpoenas have been issued for more witnesses as well. With the number of witnesses to be presented by the prosecutor approaching 30, it will be a long trial.

Nothing is gained through dragging Bree, Kai and Ayla through a prolonged trial. Shin will never be with us again. However, the legal system has failed the society already by letting the murderer walk and get behind a wheel impaired. The driver must be kept off the road and the society for a long time.
