And boy howdy, is it continuing.
We need a recap. Let me be frank about what he's in for. I could post the criminal complaint here, but I won't because it contains the minor's name and I won't do that.
david_deacon attempted to seduce a teenage minor with '50 Shades of Gray', got her drunk, and then attempted to rape her. The cops found out because of the suicide attempt of the teen after the fact. If you want the details and nasty, go find the complaint. I'm not putting that here. Period.
Let me also be clear: I hope he rots in hell.
Since then, he's been unable to afford the $200K bail that he needs to secure his release and has been existing in limbo awaiting for his trial date. That trial date has now been set: October 21, 2013, 0830 CST.
Since his incarceration, he has been DNA-tested, AIDS-tested, and the judge has granted the usual motions for discovery. But it seems all is not well with
david_deacon...
First, on 8/16/2013,
david_deacon filed a motion to have his bond reduced. By himself. Without getting his court-appointed attorney involved. This motion has not yet been decided. I do not think it will go in his favor.
Second, he has filed a motion on 9/10/2013 to fire his court-appointed attorney and get another one. Or represent himself pro se. Why?
Here's why:
This, with the court date on October 21st. I'm wondering if he's going to pro se this like New Mexico.
