Right before jury trial, DA dismisses and then refiles case for kidnapping and rape suspect

 


Jury trial was scheduled to start today for convicted felon, kidnapping and rape suspect Shannon Campbell. Instead the DA  filed first amended information. There was no objection by defense and it was granted.

Deputy District Attorney Luke Bernthal said the people intend to dismiss and refile. Ms. Andrea Sullivan stated her objection. She is a private attorney and was court appointed on Campbell's case. 

The 2022 case was dismissed by the People. Campbell was ordered released on that case by Judge Kaleb Cockrum. Campbell was arraigned on a new case filed today  and arraigned on that 2023 case. Campbell is no bail status in the 2023 case. Mr. Bernthal said the difference in charges is that a strike was added to Campbell's charges. Preliminary hearing  is on 11/13. Time estimate is a full day or 8 hours. 


I checked both cases in e court and it looks like the amended complaint has not been updated in the court system. With several cases to check every day and limited time and access to the computers, I will check the charges again when I can.
