[SUPER=03-Pulaski/February 2001]

A Pulaski County jury found Jeffrey Allen Thomas guilty a year ago. But the State Supreme Court today decided to send the case back to Pulaski. In the 26-page opinion, Justice Elizabeth Lacy concluded that pre-trial publicity demonstrated "community prejudice" against Thomas. The opinion cited not just the significant amount of news coverage the case generated, but the "tenor" of the stories.
Justice Lacy says a newspaper report was also inaccurate.
The Commonwealth's Attorney says he intends to try the case again, though it'll have to be somewhere OUTside Southwest Virginia.
