Trial Delayed For School Shooter
KENTUCKY....
U.S. District Judge Thomas B. Russell has reset the hearing for 27 year old Michael Adam Carneal for March 14th. It had been scheduled to begin February 7th in federal court in Paducah. Carneal, who admitted in 1998 to killing three classmates and wounding five others at Heath High School near Paducah in 1997 when he was 14 years old, is serving life in prison, being eligible for parole in 2023. He pleaded guilty but mentally ill to the shootings but has since claimed that mental illness prevented him from appealing the plea.
