MORE: Defense: ‘Burned baby’ statements may have tainted jury pool in baby case
Attorneys Charles H. and Charles M. Rittgers filed a motion Thursday afternoon requesting the jury view the Richardson home at 104 Eagle Ridge Drive and the Carlisle Police interrogation room.
Warren County Common Pleas Judge Donald Oda II had not ruled on the motion as of 4 p.m. today.
Richardson’s trial is scheduled to begin April 16. A pre-trial conference is scheduled for April 9.
On March 5, the defense team filed a motion to exclude Richardson’s comments at the Carlisle Police Station outside the presence of officers.
After a 60-minute meeting in chambers with attorneys on Wednesday, Oda said the defense intended to withdraw its motion to suppress those statements.
