Judge Refuses to Dismiss Child Porn Charges Against Other Judge

A federal judge has refused to dismiss a child pornography charge against former Douglas County Judge Roger Wall, who says his right to a speedy trial has been violated. Wells was charged in March. His lawyer says the speedy-trial standard was violated when the government filed a new charge that is not backed by new information. The federal judge says, however, at least two witnesses have provided new or differing accounts. And he says Wall is to blame for any delay because of the pretrial motions he has filed.
