Ukwuachu gets a new trial within 24 hours of Armstead being arrested for sexual assualt.
Baylor can't even get one piece of good news without tacking on another piece of bad news in its place.
Wonder how long it will take the 10th Court of Appeals to overturn this conviction?Former Baylor University football player Tevin Elliott is not entitled to a new trial on his sexual assault conviction, a state district judge ruled Monday.
Judge Matt Johnson of Wacos 54th State District Court, without explanation, overruled Elliotts motion for new trial Monday.
How many Baylor players will be arrested by then? They had two within 24 hours of the Ukwuachu new trial ruling.
There will be no new trial. The DA is appealing the 10th Court of Appeals ruling to the Texas Supreme Court because he knows he can't secure another conviction and his daddy in no longer a justice with the 10th Court to help CYA.
I'm confused. The quoted said he wasn't "entitled to a new trial". How is that a victory for Elliott?
This is the kind of ruling that a DA expects when the judge is his former law partner. Amazing that everyone in the courthouse, excluding Elliott and his family, knew that the defense attorney (Jason Darling) was a former McLennan County ADA. The Elliott family found out only after the fact.
There's a reason I bolded the "without explanation".

Thank you Nancy Grace. Now explain Mike Nifong to us.Prosecutors enter defense practice all the time. The money is much better. They tend to be valuable assests as they know how the State's attorneys operate. There is no conflict of interest unless the attorney actually worked on the case in question before entering private practice. If he had, he and the DA will both be disbarred as it's a serious ethical violation. Given that the motion was denied with no commentary, it is a safe bet that there is no conflict.
Thank you Nancy Grace. Now explain Mike Nifong to us.
Have you met met the Reynas ( Felipe and Able) or the Johnsons (Judges Joe and Matt...54th District Court) before? I have. Please explain them to us.
No.
But it seems irrelevant as (to answer your question from before) Elliott has already appealed to the 10th circuit, and all of his issues were denied in full:

Except, now the Texas Rangers are snooping around Reyna's office and daddy Felipe is no longer on the 10th to protect baby boy.
