What’s up with the Rocky & Leon Houston case?
Posted By katie allison granju
Roane Countians are asking what’s taking so long:
Does anyone else have the uneasy feeling that we don’t know and may not ever find out what really happened in the South of the River Shootout?
I realize that we have had a change in the District Attorney and the County Sheriff since this one began(both for the better, IMHO), but why is it taking so long? And I have always heard that if a defendant is guilty his lawyer tries to delay, delay, delay, but in this case it is the prosecution creating most of the delay. If the trial begins as currently scheduled…It will be two years since the Houstons turned themselves in before it starts.
