Cole County judge denies motion in 1991 cold case JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KMIZ) - A Cole County judge has denied the defense's request for information in a 1991 murder case. The request for a bill of particulars -- a document that details the prosecution's case -- from lawyers representing William "Chris" Niemet of Fulton was denied Wednesday, according to online court records. A bill of particulars motion allows the defense to request information from the plaintiff or prosecutor to back up the charge or charges filed against the defendant. Cole County Prosecutor Locke Thompson declined to comment because the case is still pending. Niemet's legal team has not responded to a request for comment.
