A Pulaski County judge grants the change of venue request for ashley white, but her trial will still happen in Pulaski County. Vo after an hour and a half of consideration, judge Bradley Finch decided there was too much prejudice in Pulaski County to give white a fair trial. He said 60 percent of the potential jurors were disqualified, and that is quote an extremely large percentage for any jury trial. Then, the prosecution immediately withdrew its request for a jury trial, which it made last year, and requested a bench trial. The defense ultimately agreed with that. At just after 8 30 tuesday night, it was determined that judge finch will decide the bench trial will begin thursday morning at 9 oclock. The prosecution says it believes facts are facts, that judge finch will give both sides a fair trial, and that holding a jury trial in a different place would likely cost millions of dollars.
