Hearing set for arguments about attempted murder charge
The Leavenworth Times
A new hearing date has been set for arguments concerning the possible re-prosecution of a man for an attempted murder charge in Leavenworth.
The hearing is set for Feb. 19 in the case of James D. Thompson.
Thompson, 34, previously was charged with attempted first-degree murder in connection to an August 2015 shooting in Leavenworth. During a 2017 trial, the charge of aggravated battery was presented to jurors for consideration as a lesser included offense to the attempted murder charge. And jurors convicted Thompson of the aggravated battery charge instead of attempted murder.
