Trial delays in Shannon Martin case in Costa Rica
The murder trial of three suspects in Shannon Martin's May 2001 Costa Rica death has been delayed indefinitely. Martin's mother Jeanette Stauffer will be represented by Costa Rican attorney Juan Carlos Arce, who plans to file new charges and restart proceedings likely by July. Also in Douglas County, Michael J. Pritchard faces new charges for aiding a felon and leaking warrant information after letting his daughter-in-law stay at his home. He is free on bond as judges weigh case assignments.
