Bullock trial date of March 2 vacated; future trial date and experts to be determined

The next court date for Gary Lee Bullock is March 4 at 2 p.m for trial setting.

The case is being prosecuted by Mr. Andrew Isaac and DDA Stacey Eads. Bullock is being represented by Mr. Kaleb Cockrum of Conflict Counsel.

Today, Judge John Feeney said that "there were few things to address." Judge Feeney said that "the Court had received a few records that had been subpoenaed. While he did not mention which records in court today; court records show that medical records for Bullock had been requested by the District Attorney's office. These include records from St. Joseph's Hospital, Mad River Hospital, Jerod Phelps and Singing Tree.

The records were released to Mr. Isaac to copy and to make copies for defense. Judge Feeney said that he had received some names of experts from People and was waiting on Mr. Cockrum to submit names and resumes. Today, Mr. Cockrum was able to give one name and said he would have others in two weeks.

Once the defense submits their choice of experts, Judge Feeney said "he would appoint two or three experts in this matter."

Mr. Isaac asked Judge Feeney, "Is it the Court's thought that the Court will indicate which experts are selected or will there be open discussion by Counsel? Mr. Isaac added that he did not think it was the place of the attorneys place to argue with the Judge whose names would be selected.

Judge Feeney indicated that there may be another conference in chambers for that discussion and he would not commit whether he will have the names of experts determined by the March 4 date.

On February 11, Bullock entered a plea of not guilty by insanity which was added to his existing not guilty plea.

On February 13,  a private meeting finally took in Judge John Feeney's chambers where he met with both prosecution and defense in the Gary Lee Bullock murder case. Bullock is charged with the murder and torture of Fr. Eric Freed.

This meeting was to discuss the appointment of a psychaitrist or psychologist since Gary Lee Bullock entered a not guilty by insanity plea at his last court hearing on February 11.
