Updated notes from this week. Please note that it’s become painfully obvious now that there is serious lack of non-bias now in RG as Terry King acted as Rays mouthpiece in court while there was lawyer issues. Ray remains in custody with no apparent idea when or if they’ll bond him back out. Trial is set for February.
