Due to Covid-19, the trial had been postponed to the end of this year, but now Cruz's attorneys are saying, it won't be ready by the end of this year. The problem comes in that the lead prosecuting attorney, will be retiring this year, Michael Satz, and the judge, Elizabeth Scherer, is up for re-election, and it is not certain that she will win. If neither of these people are working at the beginning of next year, a new judge will take the case, and whoever is elected as prosecuting attorney, will also take on the case. I have looked up cases in which there has been a transfer like this, and the case usually takes more time, which makes sense, because even though they share the same job, they don't share the same opinions, and all of the hearings that the first person has been part of, the second one will not. The more time passes, the more I realize this will last at least another two years. At the beginning of this, a plea deal for a lie sentence was put in place by the defense team, this could have been over with two years ago, but it wasn't and they've gotten nowhere. Please sign this petition, if you think that the prosecuting team should accept the plea deal, and put an end to this already.
