As expected, alleged molestor Seng Yang could not afford a private attorney

Trial setting and status of retention private counsel was scheduled for alleged molestor Seng Yang this morning.

As expected, Yang could not afford a private attorney. The Public Defender's office was reappointed. Trial setting was continued for two weeks to October 1; Judge Dale Reinholtsen granted that request.

Yang is charged with 16 counts which include forcible rape of Jane Doe (his own daughter) and exhibiting a minor in pornography.  Jane Doe is the alleged victim for all counts.

Yang's jury trial has been delayed because he wants to see if he can retain private counsel.  Both  Public Defender Marek Reavis and Deputy District Attorney Stacey Eads raised the issue at the last hearing whether Yang can afford to retain a private attorney.
