Judge Elliott Levine criticized prosecutors for missing a deadline for submitting jury questionnaires in the trial of triple-homicide defendant Nya Thao. Thao, who has been held in jail for two years, is accused of murdering three people in 2021. Prosecutors missed the deadline for submitting their proposed questionnaire until the day before the hearing, prompting Levine s frustration. Defense attorney Aaron Nelson argued for a shorter questionnaire, and Levine told prosecutors to agree on a questionnaire by the end of the week.
A discussion over the testimony of witnesses was at the center of a hearing on Tuesday afternoon for one of the two men charged in a triple homicide in 2021.
