Update on David McKee Case

There hasn't been anything about former Cornell goalie Dave McKee in the Sun or Journal recently (or any paper for that matter), so I did a little digging.

It appears that McKee's July 10 hearing was continued (.pdf) until September 4. That is the new pre-trial hearing date. If the case goes to trial, it will begin on December 8. Deputy District Attorney Nicole Nicholson is prosecuting the case.

(On a side note, Orange County is a lot less backed up than the DC Courts System. We were scheduling trials for April 2010.)

I can't find any account of what happened on the July 10 date.

McKee is still free on the $100,000 bond and he faces a maximum of 8 years in state prison if convicted of the two charges.

  2. Good to hear, but I won't post anything until I can find some evidence online.

  3. Anonymous on February 2 is probably the same person that edited McKee's Wikipedia page with an IP address in Dallas. Ithaca Journal on February 25, 2010 says his lawyer just made the motion for dismissal and there is a trial date scheduled for April 6.

    If the poster is McKee's lawyer, publicist, or family member I suggest you do a better job of getting the word out. Assuming this is true, of course.
