Pastor Remington hears shooting suspect Odom plead not guilty
Wearing a sport jacket and open shirt, pastor Tim Remington left Kootenai County District Court Tuesday following a hearing in which the man accused of shooting him in a flurry of gunfire a year ago pleaded not guilty to aggravated battery.
Kyle Odom, 30, entered his plea in First District Court to the felony charge and a firearm enhancement that carries a combined 30-year prison sentence. He was originally charged with attempted murder, but the charge was amended last year.
“I don’t have any anxiety or fear,” Remington said. “I feel bad for him, I really do. If Kyle comes out and is a changed person, he could be my best friend”/Ralph Bartholdt, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.
