\nA Barren County man charged with the murder of his brother and sister-in-law will not go to trial soon.<\/p>\n
Cody N. Bacon, 22, of Glasgow, was charged with two counts of murder and wanton endangerment on September 2, 2021, after he allegedly shot his brother and sister-in-law.<\/p>\n
Bacon called 911 on himself and alerted authorities that he had shot the two at a home along North Race Street.<\/p>\n
Officers later found 24 year-old David A. Pace and 22 year-old Brittany R. Pace dead inside the house.<\/p>\n
Candace Hill, the attorney representing Bacon, requested a motion to continue the case that was set to go to trial on August 15. Hill said she needed more time to evaluate and investigate the case to prepare for a trial.<\/p>\n
The motion, approved Monday, essentially cleared the case from the court\u2019s docket.<\/p>\n
Commonwealth\u2019s Attorney John Gardner is seeking the death penalty for Bacon.<\/p>\n
The court records said his office did not object to the continuance in the case.<\/p>\n
A discovery conference is scheduled for Monday, May 22 at 1 p.m. A later pre-trial conference is also scheduled for Monday, June 26 at 1 p.m.
