FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) — A judge on Tuesday delayed until October the murder trial of an Indiana man

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) — A judge on Tuesday delayed until October the murder trial of an Indiana man charged in the killings of two teenage girls after the man’s attorneys expressed concerns they would not have adequate time to present their case.

Richard Allen’s trial was set to begin next week with jury selection in Allen County for a May 13 to May 31 trial in Carroll County. Special Judge Frances Gull set the new trial date on Tuesday for Oct. 14 through Nov. 15.

The latest change in Allen’s scheduled trial came after Gull in March moved his trial, which had previously been set for October, to May after Allen’s attorneys sought a sooner trial date.

However, Allen’s attorneys have since claimed they have not had enough time to prepare their case and said the court had not granted them enough time to present their case during the trial itself.
