Judge Disqualifies Richard Allen's Attorneys, Sets New Trial Date
Special Judge Fran Gull officially removed defense attorneys Andrew Baldwin and Brad Rozzi from the Richard Allen double homicide case, expressing concerns about their representation. Rozzi claims that Gull coerced him into promising to resign but never filed the formal paperwork. The newly appointed attorneys and the prosecutor discussed a new trial date, tentatively set for October 2024. Baldwin and Rozzi's attorney argued that Gull should have given them more time to prepare before confronting them about withdrawing from the case. The hearing abruptly ended when Gull, Allen, and the attorneys left the courtroom.
