Judge Approves Another Delay In Renfro Case

A judge reluctantly agreed to another delay Wednesday in the case against a North Idaho man accused of killing a Coeur d’Alene police officer in May. First District Senior Magistrate Barry Watson rescheduled the preliminary hearing for Jonathan Daniel Renfro to Aug. 26 – 16 weeks after Renfro allegedly shot Sgt. Greg Moore. At the hearing, the judge will determine if the prosecutor has enough evidence to proceed to trial. Watson previously had postponed the preliminary hearing for Renfro, who is charged with first-degree murder. The hearing was to take place next Wednesday. Deputy Public Defender Mayli Walsh told the judge Wednesday that her office received a large volume of the state’s evidence last month and needs more time to review it/ Scott Maben , SR. More here.
