Quorum Court member Jack Reynolds faces seven counts of aggravated assault and is also charged with intimidating a witness in the case. On Wednesday, Special Judge Ted Capehart said during a hearing that he reviewed media accounts of the case and said it would be hard for Reynolds to get a fair trial in El Dorado.
Trial is set to begin July 27th at Rison and is expected to last three days.
Reynolds was charged after a three-month investigation by state police into a March 2008 dispute. Reynolds allegedly fired shots over the head of Earnest Hampton and pointed a rifle at Dr. J. Gregory Booker during the disagreement on a piece of hunting land.
