Remaining Kentucky Fen-Phen defendants William Gallion and Shirley Cunningham Jr., whose first trial ended in a mistrial in early July, were reindicted on Wednesday by a federal grand jury in Covington and will face new counts. The original indictment charged them with one count each of conspiracy to commit wire fraud. The new indictment charges them with eight counts of wire fraud in addition to a conspiracy count (Lexington Herald-Leader).
US District Judge Danny Reeves on Friday denied a request by an attorney for Gallion to delay the retrial until April. Reeves offered trial dates in either October or February. Gallion and Cunningham are scheduled to be arraigned Thursday (Herald-Leader).
