The forgotten: Julie Amero in purgatory?
As per Rick Green’s counter, today is 524 days since Julie Amero’s conviction was overturned and a new trial ordered by Judge Strackbein in New London.
The last media coverage was in July.The pending case detail on the Judicial Branch website reports that her case is “on the trial list, to be scheduled” and the last court date was October 27, 2008.
So what’s the deal? Is anything happening? Does anyone know?
There seems to be an absolute dearth of information about the progress of her case. Normally, such would lead me to believe that there’s been a gag order in place, but there would at least have been coverage of the gag order. No such thing. So either the parties are being really, really secretive – or there’s no damn movement. There are only two outcomes here – as there were the first time around: dismissal of the charges or a new trial.
What’s the State waiting for? What’s her lawyer waiting for? Why is there zero action in this case? What am I missing?
