Date For Pope Trial Not Set
District Judge John H. Kins of Kimball said no date has been set for the trial of Duane Pope, a convicted bank robbery murderer facing state charges. Pope's lawyers waived a jury trial seeking a bench trial, with the judge likely to sit alone or with two assistants. The case may use portions of the federal trial, and could occur within about 60 days in Deuel County. Pope was federally convicted for the Farmers State Bank robbery and triple murder in Big Springs in 1965, a death sentence later reduced to life.
