Courtroom 1 is Judge John Feeney's court. Deputy District Attorney Elan Firpo who is prosecuting the case was present for the People. Kaleb Cockrum from Conflict Counsel is representing Bullock.
Bullock is charged with the murder of Fr. Eric Freed, beloved priest and former pastor of St. Bernard's parish in Eureka.
Bullock looked healthier, has gained some weight, seemed alert and talked with his attorney before his case was called. He even smiled briefly while chatting with Mr. Cockrum. Then went back to his serious demeanor.
Ms. Firpo and Mr. Cockrum sat together where the public sits while other cases were being called.
When Bullock's case was called, Mr. Cockrum said that the defense was in the "middle of doing investigation. It looks unlikely we will be ready for trial in August." Mr. Cockrum said that he could not say when he will be ready and that he would file a written motion asking for continuance of the trial and perhaps future dates.
John, thank you for your update on Fr. Eric's alledged murdering scum, Bullock.
