Here’s Why Jarec Wentworth’s Trial Won’t Start Until July

Posted May 18, 2015 by Zach with 14 comments

Given the flurry of motions filed and a new six-count indictment, it looks like Jarec Wentworth won’t be going on trial for allegedly extorting Republican multimillionaire Donald Burns until July, Str8UpGayPorn can confirm.

According to the request below, both the prosecution and the defense have agreed on a new proposed trial date of July 7th, 2015. Not only do both sides need more time to prepare, but one of Jarec Wentworth/Teofil Brank’s lawyers is scheduled for jury duty in June:

Since both sides have agreed on a new trial date, the judge will likely approve the continuance. Alleged victim Donald Burns is expected to be called as a witness at the trial, at which time his name will obviously become part of the public record (currently, the court is still protecting his identity by referring to him as “D.B.”) If convicted on all seven counts, Brank faces up to 15 years in prison.
