More on Currin connection

A judge has ruled that any connection between a murder suspect and State Police Lt. Brent White or other law enforcement or jail officials at the Crittenden County Detention Center is a moot point. Lawyers for Tamera Caldwell (accused of killing Jessica Currin, a Mayfield woman in 2000) wanted charges thrown out because White or some other deputy at the jail spoke to Caldwell about the case. Caldwell is being held in the Crittenden County Jail. The judge denied the motion and set the case for trial in Clinton, Ky.

The Courier-Journal reported on the case last week, but some of the details appear to have been misconstrued. Read the article here.

White and others are under a court gag order and cannot talk about the case.
