Proceedings were continued in Christian Circuit Court Wednesday morning in the case against Terrence Stepp, the man accused in the 2018 murder of Tamara Dragoo.
Stepp appeared virtually from the Christian County Jail along with defense attorney Michael Thompson, who informed the court that he has received a significant amount of evidence in this case and needs more time to go through it all. Circuit Judge John Atkins granted his request and set the next pretrial hearing for March 24, which he says should be ample time to look over the evidence.
Stepp had previously been lodged in the Hopkins County Jail, as that county is where he was apprehended, but he has been transferred back to Christian County.
