Laurie Mason Schroeder of The Morning Call has provided new updates regarding the ongoing Jimmy “Superfly”” Snuka case.
The report notes that Lehigh County prosecutors are looking to bypass the preliminary hearing, which would save months of court time and that Chief Deputy District Attorney Charles Gallagher is arguing that a preliminary hearing is not needed as a Grand Jury has already provided a thorough probe stating, “Simply put, to require lengthy, complex testimony from an investigating grand jury to be repeated, for the sole purpose of establishing probable cause a second time, could be considered not only a waste of scarce grand jury and judicial time, but also a repetitious, costly and superfluous layer of delay before trial.
The report also notes that a hearing on the motion is scheduled before Judge Maria L. Danos on October 7th and that attorney William E. Moore, who accompanied Snuka when he surrendered, said on Wednesday that he no longer represents Snuka and that court records do not list another attorney for Snuka.
