The state trial of Gary L. Messenger II, a former state trooper, was continued indefinitely. Messenger, 31, was indicted in 2000 for six counts including burglary and assault on a 911 dispatcher who recorded the arrest of Raymond Neal Rose of Welch.

Messenger is reportedly in federal custody in Oklahoma en route to a Kentucky facility, with the local prosecutor recused due to a conflict involving the dispatcher.
