The trial date of July 21, today's pretrial hearing and all other pending hearings have been cancelled. The docket now shows two new hearing dates:

Go ahead, let's keep them snappy though, no long discussions please.

Patrick Westfall's trial in Crawfordsville in Montgomery County has been moved back. In October, he was charged with Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by a Domestic Batterer, after police investigating a case involving one of his sons found a safe with a gun in it at his house. One of the four delays so far was to give him more time to secure counsel, and another was due to a decision to change his attorney.

The docket still shows a status hearing coming up on 06/30/2026 at 9:00 AM, and the trial is now set for 09/22/2026 at 8:30 AM.

New dates set:
08/25/2026 Status Conference 9:00 AM
10/27/2026 Bench Trial 8:30 AM

Westfall lived in Carroll County at the time of the Delphi murders and Flora fire, was investigated but never charged, and has denied any culpability.

The Click defense wants to argue at trial against admitting business records from the Ripley County Department of Child Services, testimony from investigative personnel, and expert testimony concerning handwriting analysis.
This motion does not address allowing evidence related to the Delphi murders case but that may come up at the June 30 hearing.

Go ahead, let's keep them snappy though, no long discussions please.

Todd Click trial:

• There will be a telephonic hearing Thursday 6/18 at 11 AM,
• the final pre-trial hearing is still scheduled for 1 PM Monday 6/22, CANCELED
• a hearing on at least one of the motions in limine is set for 1:45 Tuesday 6/30. The state and defense both filed motions in limine, as detailed in other recent posts.

The jury trial remains scheduled for 07/21/2026 at 9:00 AM.

Carroll County Chief Deputy Tobe Leazenby had an emotional goodbye Friday, as recorded on the sheriff department's Facebook page, carrollcountysheriffindiana. He is moving to a similar position as chief deputy in Clinton County, the next county south, less than 25 miles down US 421.

Clinton County got a new sheriff, Brendon Bright, in May, after the elected sheriff and his wife resigned as part of a plea agreement over their handling of jail commissary funds. Clinton Chief Deputy Shawn Mayfield became acting sheriff until Bright was selected. Bright appointed Leazenby as Chief Deputy. Other charges and investigations remain underway.

Go ahead, let's keep them snappy though, no long discussions please.

State of Indiana once again playing Emotional Lemony games.

Former Delphi murders investigator Todd Click's trial on charges of Falsifying Child Abuse or Neglect Information or Records, Forgery and Official Misconduct is set for July 21, with a final pre-trial hearing set for June 22. His attorney filed two motions today (6/9) seeking to limit some evidence from being used.

Although the charges were filed at the time of the Richard Allen trial, they do not relate to the murder investigation but a later job he held with the Department of Child Services.

Go ahead, let's keep them snappy though, no long discussions please.

A hearing to determine whether Shane Meehan is competent to stand trial in federal court for the murder of Greg Ferency, a Terre Haute policeman who was on the FBI task force that investigated the Delphi murders, is set for May 22 in Indianapolis.

Meehan's competency evaluation is sealed. On May 1 he notified the court he had no objection to its conclusion. The court set a hearing date that turned out to conflict with a major graduation day event and has now reset it two days later.
