One Judge Delayed in Randolph Murder Trial Start
In Gallia County, Ferrell E. Randolph 23 faced a delayed start as Judge Earl Parker failed to arrive on time for the planned three judge panel. Randolph, who has pleaded innocent by reason of insanity, waived jury trial and requested multi judge hearing with Gallia Judge Betz and C W Smith. The incident stems from the May 13 shooting of his estranged wife Virginia Bell Randolph, 18, after which Randolph shot himself but survived. The courtroom saw limited spectators and Nellie Devault, mother of the victim, was present at the prosecution table.
