Defense attorneys protest transfer of trials due to pandemic

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) — Several defense attorneys in Vermont are protesting the transferring of jury trials out of counties with courthouses that are closed due to the pandemic.

This marks the resumption of a constitutionally protected practice that had been suspended since the coronavirus pandemic hit Vermont last year. In a daylong trial in Woodstock that ended late afternoon Monday, the jury found 40-year-old Andrew Hildbrand not guilty of all his four charges. He had been facing two felonies, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, as well as misdemeanor counts of reckless endangerment, stemming from a 2016 incident.
