No trial date was set during Friday's pretrial conference for Orlando Mitchell, who is accused of killing Marion County Sheriff's Deputy John Durm.
video was released of the moments leading up to the deputy's death.Officials said Durm, 61, was returning from taking Mitchell, 34, to a hospital prior to the attack outside of the transport van on July 10.
The arrest report says the incident was captured on surveillance video, which shows Durm get out of the driver's side of the sheriff's van and walk to the back of the transport van. As Durm let Mitchell out of the van, video shows Mitchell move behind Durm and put his hands over Durm's head with the handcuff chain around Durm's neck.
The video released by the sheriff's office to the public shows the moments leading up to Durm being strangled. Mitchell's counsel stated they want to have the trial date pushed back partially because of the publicity of the case."The thing that frustrated me the most was that the state specifically asked for the discovery protective order against the defense counsel and all the witnesses for doing the exact same thing that your witness did," Judge Mark Smith said.
