Prosecutors hope to move Aaron Dean murder trial up two months, hearing today
In a petition filed Jan. 12, prosecutors said,"The four-month continuance granted by this court exceeds that which was required by defendant’s motion for continuance and unduly delays justice."
Jury selection is currently scheduled for May 9 with the trial scheduled to start seven days later on May 16. Prosecutors are now asking that voir dire be moved to March 14 and for the trial to begin on March 21. A trial date had originally been set for Nov. 29, 2021, but Dean's defense team said then that they wouldn't be ready for it and the trial. Defense attorneys have asked that the trial be moved out of Tarrant County, arguing Dean cannot receive a fair trial due to pre-trial publicity. So far, there has been no ruling on the motion to move the trial.NBC 5's Frank Heinz, Lili Zheng and Alanna Quillen contributed to this report.
