As pointed out by SW Virginia Law Blog, a Circuit Court judge has issued a show cause on two prosecutors because the prosecutors asked for all jury trials on May 23, the day the cases were scheduled for bench trials by Circuit Court Judge B.A. Davis III (a retired judge who was substituting) and releasing all the subpoenaed witnesses before the court date. According to this article (4th story down): "BOTH HAVE STATED THEY WILL ALWAYS REQUEST JURY TRIALS WHEN DAVIS IS PRESIDING."

If anyone has any information on the story behind this story I ask you to drop me a line.
