More than 55 Bulloch County adults were summoned as potential jurors for Superior Court jury selection beginning next Monday, when Supreme Court of Georgia Chief Justice Harold D. Melton signed his order Tuesday allowing jury trials to resume.
Four days, March 23-26, are marked on the Ogeechee Judicial Circuit Superior Courts calendar for a jury trial in Bulloch County. If it occurs as expected, it will be the first jury trial in the four-county circuit since Melton’s initial COVID-19 pandemic emergency order halted all jury proceedings one year ago.

Felony-murder defendant William Marcus “Marc” Wilson and others interested in his case were still awaiting word on his second chance at bond as of Monday evening.
Wilson, 22, is charged with causing the June 14 death of Haley Hutcheson, 17, and also faces five aggravated assault charges and one count of possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. Hutcheson was riding in a pickup truck on Veterans Memorial Parkway in Statesboro with four other young people when she was hit by a bullet Wilson allegedly fired from his car. His defense attorneys assert that he was defending himself and his girlfriend from a racist attack by occupants of the truck.
