Judge orders Kevorkian to stand trial in Hyde death
Detroit Recorder's Court Judge Thomas Jackson set a trial date of April 19 for Dr. Jack Kevorkian in the death of Thomas Hyde, a 30 year old Lou Gehrig's disease patient who died last summer, rejecting motions to dismiss the charge and allowing an immediate trial. Kevorkian criticized the proceedings as a farce while his lawyer urged a fast trial.
