Pre-trial starts for 2nd degree murder case
On Friday, Kristina May Juarez was in court for her pre-trial conference.
Juarez is accused of stabbing her brother, Ronald Michael Christensen in 2016. Christensen’s body was found after police were called to a residence on Jefferson Avenue for a disturbance. She was charged with one count of second-degree murder.
During the pre-trial conference, the state and defense discussed jury questionnaires. The judge voiced his concern that possible jurors might be more familiar with this case. It is expected they will bring in around 150 prospective jurors.
