Scott DeMuth's sentencing postponed again

Dec. 30, 2010 Davenport Grand Jury

Scott DeMuth’s pre-sentencing hearing, which had been scheduled for
December 29 after getting postponed once already, got canceled today
because of bureaucratic issues in the court system. His actual sentencing
is now scheduled for January 14th in Iowa.

Because of the lack of a pre-sentencing hearing (in which pre-sentencing
motions and sentencing details were to be discussed), we have no new
information about issues regarding restitution, probation, or when and
where Scott will be doing time. Scott’s lawyers are now trying to schedule
another phone hearing; if this does not happen, we will not know about
these things until the sentencing itself.

We do know, however, that we are still in need of commissary money, so
please donate to support Scott for his time in prison if you can! You can
find a Paypal button and other donation information at
http://davenportgrandjury.wordpress.com/what-you-can-do.

We will post updates as we get them, so please watch for them in the future.

Thank you all for your support so far!

In solidarity,
the Scott and Carrie Support Committee (SCSC)
