Pickaway County's latest murder trial has another twist.
The first aggravated murder trial of Brent Cox in early June ended with the jury not being able to reach a verdict on three counts. With another trial planned, Cox now has replaced his former attorney Mike Hess.
Pickaway County Prosecutor Judy Wolford said the hearing 10:30 Wednesday morning was a simple procedure - Hess filed to back out, his replacement has already filed to step in, and the process moves along.
It's unclear if this will delay the second trial.
