There was another continuance granted Wednesday morning in Christian Circuit Court for the man accused of sexually abusing a juvenile female on a church bus on Easter Sunday last year.
Attorney Sands Chewning represents Tyler Frances and says he’s still waiting for Commonwelath’s Attorney Rick Boling to interview two eyewitnesses he has identified before it can be determined how the case will proceed.
Another hearing was scheduled for December 9 at 8:30.
Investigation by Hopkinsville police led to the first-degree sexual abuse charge after the alleged victim said Frances ripped off her underwear and inappropriately touched her while both were riding the church bus. Frances has pled not guilty in the case.
