Information is now out on how the lawyer will handle the case of a teenage girl from the central Iowa town of Colo who is charged with shooting a man.
The attorney for 18-year-old Rachel Huggins has filed a motion of “defense of insanity and diminished responsibility” as well as a request for a change of venue. Huggins is accused of shooting a prison guard on New Year’s Eve after she had accused her alleged victim of sexually abusing her.
Huggins is expected to have her pre-trial conference on July 17th with a potential trial to follow on the charge of attempted murder and willful injury causing serious injury.
